Short Stories

I've always loved short stories, ever since I was extraordinarily young. Naturally, when I used to be a kid the short tales that I read were often fantasy.

I loved folklore, mythology,and anything more that concerned wonderful creatures or other worlds. It appears that my tastes have changed a lot over time, and there are lots of things that I enjoy now that I would not have liked much even as a young adult. Even so, fantasy and science-fiction stories still have a special place in my heart. When I used to be a kid, naturally, my favourite thing was to be read short stories by my mother or pa. They, like me, had been raised on tales of the amazing, and so they knew just what short stories would hold my interest. They also liked to read aloud, and I suspect that it gave them a great amount of pleasure to see me so hypnotized by the stories that they themselves had grown up on. Naturally, now that I'm older, I don't have anybody to read to me.

you will find most of the most noted or well-liked stories in audio book form, but with short stories it's a little more hit or miss. A large amount of the best stories out there haven't ever been recorded.

Still, you'd be stunned at the amount of things that you will find if you're ready to truly try a search for them. There are quite a good number of gems out there just waiting to be discovered. If you're a genuine short story fan, the best place to read them is in new fiction mags. There are actually thousands of fantastic writers out there, every one of them pumping out superb tales for your reading pleasure. Few of them ever get well known, so if you wish to stay abreast of the times, you have got to read some short story collections and regulars. They're quite reasonable, and will give you a brilliant idea of what is occurring in the world of writing right now. They may also give you hours of reading pleasure that you can take with you anywhere.
