Top 5 Signs Your Short Story is Too Long

  1. You haven’t read your last paragraph since you wrote it.
  2. You notice all your feedback is on the first half.
  3. You take a coffee break 3/4 of the way through reading and need to refill by the time you’re done.
  4. You lose the final page of your manuscript and find your story improved.
  5. Your mom reads it and says, “It’s a lovely novel.”
