Best Answer

A gripping short story typically has a strong opening that hooks the reader, well-developed characters facing interesting conflicts, a sense of tension or suspense that keeps the reader engaged, and a satisfying resolution that leaves an impact. Additionally, concise and evocative writing that creates a vivid and immersive world can also make a short story gripping.

How long does a story have to be?

Once upon a time, there was a fox. The fox saw a mouse. The fox ate the mouse. That is VERY short but it makes its point, therefore, it is still a story. It has a regular beginning and a sad ending. It makes its point. Here's another short story that makes its point: There was a girl. She had lost her dog. She was very sad. She received a dog for Christmas and named it Miracle. Sad beginning and a happy ending, right? And, once again, it makes its point. So a story can be as long as it has to be. :)
