Short Story Writing e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The modern short story is essentially an American product; and our masters Of its art have established precedents for literary workers Of the Old World. In England, Stevenson, Kipling and Haggard are con sidered the originators Of the modern short story; and Zola, de Maupassant, Daudet and Paul Marguerite In, France, Tolstoi in Russia, and other famous foreign au thors have their claims for consideration; but all of them, admittedly or not, are but disciples Of the earlier American trinity. This book will confine itself to the english-american short story.
