    A short story should be concise and easily understandable. It should revolve around a main character that faces a problem, which may have multiple solutions or twists, before ultimately reaching a final solution that often provides a happy ending. When writing a short story, an author should identify the main character, create a problem for them to face, provide a solution or ending to resolve the issue, and potentially include an interesting twist. The moral or message should come across naturally without relying too heavily on words like "then" or "but".

    Short Story Writing

    A story is a fictional or factual narrative. Stories inspire us and even make us


    question our views. Story writing is an art form. It requires a lot of creative
    thinking, planning and mastery of narrative skills and language. A short story
    should be as direct and concise as possible because it is intended to be read in one
    sitting. It should be written in an easily understandable grammatical structure.

    STEPS FOR WRITING A STORY:

    1. Identify the character. Any story always revolves around its main character.

    2. Create a problem for your character.

    3. Give a solution to the problem.

    4. Twist - bring an interesting twist to the story. (Add multiple solutions and
    twists based on your imagination.)

    5. The final step is the final solution for your character. (Try to give a happy
    ending to your story.)

    7. Don’t overuse the words ‘Then’ or ‘But’ instead try using words like
    afterwards, however, later, subsequently, yet, etc..

    8. The moral of your story should come out naturally.

    Q. Write a story in 150 - 200 words with the help of the following beginning. Give
    it a suitable title.

    On a sunny winter afternoon, I was sipping coffee from my favourite mug when
    suddenly….
