Writing short stories can be crucial to your novel-writing dream.

Resist the urge to begin your writing career with a full-length novel. That’s akin to going for your PhD before finishing elementary school.

You have a lot to learn about the publishing world, selling your work, working with an editor, getting cliches out of your system, and, in short, honing your skills.

In this video, based on my 45 years of experience, I help you get started writing compelling short stories.

We’ll explore:

- 6 steps to make your stories better
- How to find and perfect your own writing voice
- Finding inspiration from classic short stories (including my reading suggestions)
- How to create characters and plot points
- The unique nature of your first draft
- How to ferociously self-edit for success
- And much more
