Online Story Publishing Portals: The Boon For Rookie Writers

Experience is the best teacher for every person and therefore it is better to share that same with others so that they might not face the problem which you had faced. But, how to let the masses know about your experience in the main question in front of most of the people. The first reason is that they do not know how to begin, that is they are unaware about the method of sharing their experience with others who are unknown to them. Well, an answer to this question is that there is no established set of rules to start your dialogue with others, the only thing which needs a person to start the conversation is self confidence and ability of using impressive words that are capable to grab the attention of readers at first instance.

Apart from this the other question which bothers to most of the persons is that they do not have an idea of where to publish short stories. Because, there are lots of persons who feel that getting the written content published means its publication in some book, newspaper or any other source. Along with this they are not sure that whether their content will be published by the publisher easily or they will have to move from one publisher to another, or will they accept their story without any corrections or will ask them to get it edited or reject it directly. Besides, all these questions one more question that bothers them is the charge that a publisher will charge for publishing their story, because no publisher will be ready to publish the work of other writer on his platform without charging any money for that.

Going through all these problems sometimes despite of willing to publish their story for sharing with people they are not able to get it published. Interestingly, nowadays there are lots of online portals like Yours2read that facilitate the novice writers to publish their short stories on their platform without any charges. An interesting feature of such portals is that there are not set rules determined for the writers except that they should not make use any language that is abusive or might hurt the feelings and emotions of other people.

In short it can be said that these portals encourage the people with or without writing skills to publish their stories on their platform without any fear of roaming from one publisher to another or getting the content rejected etc without paying any charges for that.

Giving New Dimensions to Your Writing Skills by Publishing Short Stories Online

What will be your reply if someone asks you the definition of the story? Obviously you will reply it is a kind of dialogue or an imagination of some person narrated by him. But, if you ask the same question from me, I will say that story is a vast term, which cannot be restricted only narrated by someone. Because when you go to watch any movie, you watch it because of its storyline, which attracts you, similarly when you read any novel you read it only because the subject discussed in the novel attracts you. Therefore, in the simple terms story can be defined as an imagination of a person revealed in the form of narration, movie, play or novel.


But, in today scenario the method of revealing stories has changed and now with excessive use of internet in our day to day activities you can read and write short stories online, depending upon your interest. Today there are various portals which encourage emerging writers to publish their stories online and interestingly, this trend is flourishing at jet dynamic speed across the world. Imagine yourself waiting for your flight at airport or train at the station and to spend your time you just switch on your smartphone and start reading any story which you find interesting according to your choice.

Interestingly, going through this trend today number of amateur and skilled writers who due to any reason could not get their stories published in any magazines are publishing their stories online. If writing is your habit and you want to let the people know about your writing skills then start writing short stories online by designing your imaginations with suitable words. Because finally it is the word game, if your words have potential to fascinate the readers, then undoubtedly you are the best writer.

Tell me, won’t it be exciting for you to view your photo and name with some story published online and even getting stars for that. Moreover, if you are fortunate than it is quite possible that your story might be noticed by some renowned publishers who might engage you for their portal to write for them. But, writing story for online readers is not an easy task, for that you have to be creative and have an efficiency of understanding the interest of readers.

However, as a general practice it is seen that most of the online story readers are youth who prefer to read either fictional stories or love stories. Therefore, while writing such stories the most important factor for you to consider is giving it an eye catching title, for instance, if you are writing a love story, then instead of giving it some common title it would be better to entitle it as “Was it really a love or friendship”.

One more thing when you write stories online, try to limit the word strength between 400 and 500 words so that it doesn’t irritate the readers. Also make sure that the grammar of your story is up-to the mark and there is no spelling mistake.
