Which of the following should a writer try to do during the drafting stage of writing a short story?

a.
show through dialogue

b.
repeat frequently to create rhythm

c.
tell through description

d.
switch regularly between rising action and falling action

The right answer is " A.show through dialogue"

The explanation for this is that the dialogues are the essential elements of the  short story, they characterize the expressive basis of this type of text. They develop the plot conflicts, being determined by the speech of the characters.

the answer is b. i read this story before.

here's some tricks. write on a book that you have read and really enjoyed. first, start by writing down basic event in the book. have your first paragraph be an intro explaining like the author, the reason the book was written if known, and other backround info like that. paragraph two explain what happens in the first few chapters and the signifigance it had. then for paragraph 3, do the same thing but for the middle. i'm pretty sure you get the point for paragraph 4. just rap things up and explain the call to action. for the final paragragh (paragraph 5) , explain your views on the book, the message, ect. tip: something that might is to go onto cliff notes or something and read the anaylisis of each chapter.

some books i recommend;
