Does anyone have any tips on writing short stories, or any ideas, prompts, or characters I could use?

We Answered:

Make sure you develop a strong central character and make sure that you have thoroughly explored the character in the setting in which you place them. Make sure that is is paced so that the reader gets drawn into your world. I find some of my best starts for short stories come from watching people and observing them, maybe try creating a back story for them in your mind, where they are going what they are doing, what kind of person are they, are they having a conflict with something? be imaginative and unique and go for it! there is no better way to learn than to start writing! One other tip for characters is to be sure that somehow they change from the beginning to end in a substantial way! Hope that helped! good luck!
