Can you give an example of a 'long i story'?

Perhaps there's a 'long nose story' where a wizard has a long nose that has magical powers. He uses his long nose to sniff out hidden treasures or to detect danger. People in the story are both in awe and a bit scared of his long - nosed power.

Well, consider the story of a talented singer. She had an amazing voice and was on the verge of stardom. But she was in a relationship with a controlling manager. He made her work non - stop, isolated her from her friends and family. Eventually, she lost her passion for singing. Then she had a vocal cord injury which ended her singing career. To make matters worse, she found out that the manager had embezzled all her money. She ended up penniless, alone, and with her dreams shattered. This is a long tragic story of a person's downfall.

Sure. Once there was a man who started to tell about his fishing trip. He began with how he woke up that morning. He described in great detail what he had for breakfast, how he chose his clothes for the day, and then he went on to talk about the drive to the fishing spot. He told about every single turn he took, every song he heard on the radio, and when he finally got to the lake, he started to list all the equipment he took out of his car one by one, before he even started to talk about actually fishing. That's a long winded story.

A story about a man walking down the street. He starts by describing every single step, every crack on the sidewalk, every tree he passes by in great detail, but there is no real goal or interesting event in the story. That's a long hollow story.

Sure. For example, a short story could be about a man who finds a magic coin on the street. In just a few paragraphs, it can describe how he picks it up, feels a strange warmth, and then suddenly his day starts to change in unexpected ways. This is a short story but it can have a long - lasting impact on the reader.

Yes. There was a short event where a cat chased a mouse into a hole. But the long story is about what happened next. The cat waited outside the hole for a long time. The mouse inside was thinking of ways to escape. The cat's owner came and tried to persuade the cat to leave. This short chase led to a long - drawn - out stand - off between the cat, the mouse and the owner.

A long shot story could be about a young, inexperienced actor who auditions for a major Hollywood role against hundreds of well - known and established actors. Against all expectations, he gets the part and goes on to become a huge star. His journey from an unknown to a big - name actor was a long shot but made for a great story.

One possible example of a 'long tail short story' could be set in the music industry. Imagine a story about a music producer who starts a label dedicated to promoting unsigned or indie musicians (the long tail of the music market). The short story could detail how he finds these hidden gems, the struggles they face in getting noticed, and how over time, their collective small - scale success builds a unique and sustainable music scene that is different from the mainstream top - 40 hits.

One example could be 'The Wreck of the Hesperus' by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. While it's not completely 'lost' in the sense that it's still widely known today, there may have been earlier drafts or versions that have been lost over time. Another potential example could be some of the short stories written by lesser - known authors from the 19th century that were published in small - circulation magazines and then the magazines themselves ceased to exist, taking the stories with them into obscurity.

There was a snake named Blaze. He lived in a cave near a glade. Blaze was very lazy. One day, he decided to go on an adventure. He slithered to a place where there was a huge cake. He was amazed by the size of the cake. He wanted to take it back to his cave. In this 'long a silent e story', we have words such as 'Blaze', 'glade' and 'cake' that follow the pattern.
