Learning to Write Short Stories

Posted on 7:43 PM by Unknown

I hope that you are all ready for a relaxing and loving Holiday Season. I am, for sure, at beautiful Rosemary Beach with my Sweetheart. Part of my relaxation has been to begin learning to write short stories. My faithful blogger pal (BeachBrights) has suggested that we need to explore the social media world with a sample of my writing. I have a new Kindle and my Sweetheart has downloaded a bunch of stories to read, some free and some from prominent authors.

My Sweetheart also suggests that I am a romantic and should try that genre. This comes as a bit of a shock, as I have always written thrillers, though I try to build emotional connection into the stories (among the characters and the reader).

My parents’ wedding anniversary is on Christmas Eve. They are both in another realm, though it would have been their 69th anniversary. I am toying with a story line addressing the meaning of reconciling a mature son’s emotions about a mother who has been gone for almost 40 years.

Its always interesting. Relax and enjoy.

 Warms, Cym
