Have you taken any literature courses at University? Do you intend to. I esteem the works of Flannery O'Connor, Walker Percy, GKChesterson, Dorothy Sayers, CSLewis, JRRTolkien, Susan Howatch along with many others. Short stories are an excellent vehicle for life's narrative (the story we find ourselves in) IMO it is far superior to more didactic, propositionally structured forms of communication.
