Presentation Abstract

This portfolio of fictional stories was created through the inspiration from constraints drawn from various published short stories. Constraints are a literary technique in which the writer is bound to certain elements or inspires a pattern within a work of writing. Each short story takes place in modern society and within the pieces, intimate moments between two individuals are explored throughout. This portfolio examines symbols of love, identity, life, and relationships, whether it be between two romantic partners, platonic partners, or siblings.
