Finding My Perfect Medium Story Length
Why 2 to 3 Minutes Works for Me
I am still working on what the best length of story for me to write is.
I have found that it is not me that dictates the length, but normally the story.
For what I write, I have noticed that two to three minutes is a good time, and that seems to be good for readers.
I think most of my ideas can be completely covered in three minutes without me having to just add extra content for the sake of it. I mean, I do not want to, as Sophia Tell- Stories 🤓📢🤓 said, bore the readers.
I think being concise and to the point makes it good for readers as I am respecting their time. Obviously, there is nothing wrong with long articles, but only if they need to be long and not just dragged out.
I have read some good stories here that have been up to ten minutes. These stories required that time and were a good read.
Personally, three minutes is good, and a few times I have taken this to four or five minutes. But that is the most I can do.
So, this is my writing time now: two to four minutes. There, I have said it, and now I will not feel pressured to write for longer.
A questions asked of me:
Are you best suited as a contestant on Jeopardy or Family Feud?
Family Fortunes is the British version of Family Feud, and I really enjoyed the series when it was on.
I am definitely best suited to Family feuds as when the family is around during holiday, we are always playing quiz games and we had the box set of family Fortunes
