Short stories Anonymous 2016-07-12 04:27:17 Post No. 8268475 [Report]

I'm a ameture writer starting out. I have adhd and attention span issues. As a result short stories are easier for me to write than novels. I'm into stuff like creative non-fiction and fiction stories that are based on stuff that could actually happen in real life. I've never read stuff like Harry Potter because it feels insulting to my intelligence as it couldn't happen in real life. I hate it when tv shows "jump the shark" and do crazy stunts that wouldnt happen in real life. Realism is the most important part of the story with the message and the emotion to me. Is there a market for fictional short stories that aren't based on supernatural stuff or anything that couldn't happen in real life?

I'm unsure, but I'm in the same boat as you. Though my short stories don't include plot, characters, or actions of any kind typically. They're just a collection of eloquent observations about any given environment with mood and tone as the primary basis for creativity.
