Similarly, writing a short story is more difficult than writing a whole novel as one has to be careful of not getting too descriptive of everything and deviate from the main storyline while in a novel one can giving detailed descriptions of different things. One interesting point to mention here is that when one needs to give a speech on a particular topic for a whole hour then many people after a bit of researching and practicing but you need great oratory skill to speak on something for 5 minutes. Once they get comfortable with shorter forms then they can think about writing a novel. If a writer feels that they cannot manage to write a whole novel then they may begin with short stories or poems if they want. For writing a good story one needs to have a lot of conviction in writing that story, one should believe in oneself and no matter the readers like it or not the storyteller should not care as he or she knows that the story is important to them and it is to be told to the people not caring whether anybody likes it or not. A good reading habit can help you with better concentration levels, patience and help children read their academic textbooks in a more organized way.īut not diverging from the issue we come back to storytelling. They should be given illustrative books to begin with. A small child though should not be handed a novel at first which can bore him or her and make him allergic to reading. Reading habits are fading away in current generations and it is a very alarming and dangerous trend as a good reading habit should be inculcated in everybody by the parents from a very early age. It has been said by British worldwide bestselling author Jeffery Archer that each person born may not have a story in them worth writing a novel but everyone surely has a short story in them. The narrative by a writer is also one of the trademarks that can be used to identify a particular writer. There are many different styles of writing and it is often said that you can recognize any famous writer by reading a few lines from any of his works as every writer has particular words that he often uses or a particular way of presenting ideas.
