Agatha Christie once said that a short story was "something that can be read in an hour and remembered for a lifetime." However, good short stories don't just emerge by luck. Rather, they require a comprehensive, logical writing method that takes you from start to finish; that's exactly what this course is designed to do, enabling you to turn your creative ideas into short stories, either for pleasure or profit.

In recent years, short stories have become one of the most well-like forms of fiction. Many magazines depend on them to fill their allocated fiction pages, and paperback publishers find anthologies of short stories are popular sellers. So, this can be a rewarding form of writing, both financially and creatively.

The Writing School's Short Story Writing course will teach you about plotting, constructing, characterisation and how to earn an income from your new writing skills! Plus, as your course is delivered by distance education, there are no timetables to adhere to so your study can fit around your current lifestyle.
