Abstract

The following group of short stories, presented as a creative writing thesis, is arranged in a purposeful order. In each of the ten stories the main character meets some sort of crisis in which he faces failure or frustrating circumstances. These failures are from two sources: they come about (1) through character weakness, or (2) because of outside factors. In either case the story is also concerned with whether the character reacts negatively or positively, according to his particular weakness or strength of character.
