I am a liberal arts student who just graduated from senior three, and I want to write some novels (reasoning, science fiction). As a newcomer, I don't know where to go. Please give us your advice!

Short stories are a category of literary works, usually referring to novels with a length of less than 20,000 words. Although we have written the most short stories since childhood (in retrospect, we have never seen any Chinese teacher ask students to write long stories or something), most people still encounter such problems when they really want to write short stories, let alone write short mystery novels.

As far as I am concerned, more novels are written in the category of mystery novels. Most short stories are written for magazines.

In my opinion, short stories, especially short mystery novels, are both good and bad to write. It is easy to write, because the space is short, the content and complexity of reasoning are not very high, and it is often only necessary to make a fuss about one or two points, which is not easy to make mistakes. It is precisely in this place that it is difficult to write. In order to effectively create a story effect in a narrow space, how to arrange characters, plots, clues, reasoning and other elements is quite a test of the author's skill.
