H'okay, so ...
I'm seriously thinking about maybe trying to do a few Furry Short-Stories ... but I'm not quite sure what exactly a Short Story is constituted as. Chapters? Pages? How many paragraphs in a short story chapter? Etc., etc.
I'm also lacking story event Ideas, though I may have a couple up my sleeve already. I think I might like to go somewhere with my Kitira, Lea, Wolfie and DiDena characters. Ideas? Suggestions? Answers? Anyone?

It's a combination of length and subject matter. Short stories are usually at least a few pages, though the maximum is pretty much however many it takes to accomplish it's goal. Which is what really defines the point of a short story - what it sets out to do. The most important thing that defines a short story is it's message or moral, the intended effect that it's viewing will have on the reader. It's meant to be focused on a point, or a series of points, with all the processions of a standard story, simply with a faster rate of progress. It's not so much a length of words, as it is delivery. That's just my definition. This site probably explains it a lot better - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_storyAs for subjects, that's the writers own discretion - write whatever you feel comfortable with, or just whatever you feel. Write as you are or want to be. Though if you need a specific topic, something a with a fox might be nice. |

It's only a shameless plug if Usagi does it ;p If I do it, it's just a recommendation/advertisement ^_^
