Short Story
a short story is a brief, fictional story that can
usually be read in one or two sittings. It typically follows only one or two characters
and focuses on one plot problem that is resolved by the end of the story.
The setting of a short story is very focused. It will only take place in one or two locations.
The purpose of a short story is to give the reader a glimpse of a few characters’ lives as they confront a problem.
Short Story
A novel, on the other hand, is a long work of fiction in which a
character typically changes or grows in several ways. There are often more than one plot problem in a novel, and sometimes even plot twists and surprises. There is also often more than one important character.
In a novel, we learn a lot about many places in a story, characters’ backgrounds, and what happened before the story begins. The difference between a short story and a novel, then, is that a short story shows a slice of life, whereas a novel or book will give a longer, deeper look. Short stories differ from longer fiction in the amount of detail they offer to readers. A good reader will want to examine how a short story includes the most essential details (the story elements), but leaves many of the other details to our imagination.
