AboutSusan Rand Expertise I can answer such questions as "What is a short story?" "How do I go about writing one?" "How do I know when I`ve got a good idea?" Also questions on characters, plot (if any), conflict, resolution, etc. I cannot tell you how to get published or what formats might be interested in your work. My concern is with the story itself - does it work or doesn`t it?
Experience I have read many short stories for pleasure and even more with a critical eye. I know what a short story is and is supposed to be. I have edited fiction books and contributed articles to several e'zines.
Education/Credentials BA in English/creative writing, 35 years studying, teaching and writing/editing.

Answer Hello ga:
My opinion is that the individual you describe has as good a chance of becoming a writer as anyone else, provided:
1. He is a patient person;
2. He is willing to study and study and study some more;
3. He is able to wait and wait for his reward, never knowing if there will actually be one; and
4. He writes in a language he knows well, or is prepared to learn to speak another fluently.
