Example of a Short StoryThis information is brought to you by ‘Christmas Clipart - Huge Christmas GraphicsPackage’ at:http://190472y-03xich70zgw4lkr8mf.hop.clickbank.net/By Andrew LensowskyTo help demonstrate what I feel is an effective way to write a short story, I'vewhipped up a silly little something. I hope that this example can help you in anywriting you're doing. To the story!Sushi Jawa is dead. He died in 1973 after being bucked off his bull in his finalrodeo show prior to his retiring. By the time the rodeo clowns had gotten the bulloff of him it was to late. Sushi Jawa had suffered a major concussion and entereda coma for 36 hours before dyeing in a Red Cross hospital.In the first few years after the end of World War 2 and Japan's defeat, Sushi Jawaspent most of his time devoted to developing his Rodeo Show to become somewhat ofa hit and a tourist attraction as the "Only Rodeo This Side of the Atlantic". By1952 Sushi Jawa's Rodeo was making him sufficient enough money for him to beconsidered medium upper class. Sushi decided upon looking back at his life priorto The Epiphany, as he liked to call it, that he ought to go back to America tovisit his homeland. He decided he needed to know who he was, where he'd come from.He needed answers, and he intended to meet his son.So in the autumn of 1952 Sushi Jawa flew to The United States of America to hishome town of Springfield, Missouri. He discovered almost immediately upon hisarrival that his arrival that his father had killed himself about the time thatHiroshima was bombed. Sushi's mother had left his father and the grief and pain oflosing the only two things keeping his sanity was too much, and he jumped to hisdeath from the top of the Darth Vader building. After he found this out he figuredhe could at least find his mother, but it turns out that she died of breast cancerone year to the day after his father killed himself. Sushi was left with only oneperson in the world with his blood pumping through their veins, and that was hisson. He found his old girl friend, who had since become a meth head, anddiscovered that she had put the child up for adoption about a year after itsbirth. Mr. Jawa decided that it was imperative that he find his child, and so hewent to the local orphanage and looked up where his child had gone. He didn't evenknow it's name. He soon found that the child's name was Xavier and that it was aboy. He also discovered that the last that was heard of him he was in St Louis asa waiter at a Steak n Shake. He rented a car and drove to St Louis, and found theSteak n Shake, asked around for his address, and headed to his long lost son'shouse. No one was home so he waited on the front step. When his son finallyarrived after an hour, he was obviously drunk, and when Sushi tried to tell him hewas his father, Xavier hit Sushi. Sushi cried, but then knew that he had only himself to blame and that the only thing he could do was try and fix the world sothat this would never happen to anyone again. He promptly returned to Japan andbegan putting fifty percent of his earnings from his rodeo into a plannedpregnancy equivalent in Japan.On one of his visits to the planned pregnancy clinic, Sushi made conversation withthe secretary, and they arranged for a date. One thing led to another and theyended up getting married. 5 years after they got married, they had twin boys andnamed them Yoshi-mitsu and Mitsurugi.Although Sushi Jawa died before he could see his son's finish their upperschooling, he still lived the rest of his days the happiest man alive, and healways remembered the Hiroshima bombing, and knew that although the situation wasno doubt terrible, there was at least some good, because one man's life was saved.And through that he saved the lives of many others.I put a lot of time into this story, so I really hope that you liked it. I thinkthat there's a lot that can be learned from examining the writing of others.I put a lot of effort into this story, let me know if it helped you or if you
