Thesis Statement

To write a short story about something, first think of something you like a lot. It could be about TV shows, playing games, songs, yummy food, or movies. How to Write Your Story After picking something you like, make it more specific. For example, if you pick games, choose one game like soccer. But talking about soccer in a short story is still too big. So, make it even more specific. You could write about how players sometimes get hurt while playing soccer. This is how you go from a big idea to a small, specific story idea.
