Personally, I like short stories. Sometimes i don't when its a pointless story but most the time i like them. I like novels as well but all together I'm not the biggest fan of reading. When it comes to short stories I like the fact the so much detail and plot can be in such a short story and it still make sense. Short stories can even posses the suspense a long novel can with out all the pages of reading. I think it takes a skillful author to beable to do that. I mean you also have to be skilled to be able to right a long novel and not make it boring but its cool that someone can put so much in a short story.
One story we read in class was "The Most Dangerous Game" This story was one which contained suspense and a lot of detail. I liked this story in how the author showed foreshadowing but in kind of a hidden way so you really had to think about what was going on. Even though this wasn't a long novel it gave the reader the option of being able to think and try to predict what will follow. Another story was "The Lady and the Tiger" In this short story it gave background, foreshadowing and let the reader the opratunity to take part in the story and create their own ending. I enjoyed this because it did all this in just a short story.

Im not really interested in nano or gano writing.
