Recommended complete short stories

Hi! I’ve done this a while ago. But life got in the way, and I’ve been away from the Episode for so long, I don’t know where to start again :slight_smile:

I’ve got quite a lot of passes collected and I’m looking for complete short (up to 10 episodes) stories recommendations to read. I don’t mind which art style. I’m also open to any genre suggestions. And I would prefer if they were more recent stories (published within the last 2 years or so, as I think I’ve read most of the great short stories from before).

Please, don’t advertise your own stories, just the ones that you’ve read and really enjoyed. Also, I’d like to emphasise that I am looking for complete stories. I want something I could read at my preferred pace, rather than having to wait for ages for the stories to be updated (and possibly have them discontinued in the end).

Thank you for your suggestions! :slight_smile:

No problem. I hope you enjoy them and I’ll keep thinking of more! I personally read mostly short stories so I’ll just update my list above to as not to spam the thread haha. Most of what I read do tend to be thrillers though lol. If that’s your thing, last year’s Halloween contest was Thriller and all stories had to be complete and under 5 chapters so there are a few good ones floating around.

Also some people need to read this :see_no_evil::

Moved to Promote Your Story since you’re looking for recommendations. Make sure to check out our Forum Tutorial for more info about where to correctly create topics, and feel to PM me if there are any questions. :wink:

@Sydney_H I did specifically ask people to promote good stories of other authors rather than their own, though (that some people chose to ignore it is another thing) But thanks for the tip.

Thank you, I’ll be checking these out! :slight_smile:

I’m really quite keen for all the genres. The quality of the story is the most important :slight_smile: So, thrillers sound great! Thank you for all the suggestions. And if you remember more, I’ll be grateful.

And I do agree about the importance of reading what a person is asking for! :see_no_evil: I wouldn’t want to offend anyone or hurt their feelings. And I do understand that people strongly care about the stories that they have worked on so hard… But that is not what I asked for.

Why was mine flagged? You ask for recommendations and that’s what I said? I never promoted my own story either. Just a little bit confused

Sorry, I wasn’t the one who flagged them. But if I remember correctly, none of the recommended stories were short or finished.

Two of the stories doesn’t have a lot of chapters and some of them do is that what you mean?
None of them was finished but a couple of them had over 18 chapters. But if I have made a mistake then hands up. My bad

Wow… what a good act… First you flag peoples post and then you tell that you dont want to offend someone or hurt their feelings…

I have not flagged anyone’s posts. I just didn’t reply to the posts that did not meet what I asked for.

I’ve only replied to the moderator of the forums, when my post was moved into “Promote your story” sub, as it was not what I asked for to begin with. I am not really sure what else I could say on this topic.
