I'm Chetan. I won't say I'm a good writer, but I'm on the journey of becoming one. Okay here's the problem: I have a story in my mind and I really want to write it. But, I'm thinking of starting with some short stories and seeing where they take me. The confusion is, should I write the one in my mind (it's pretty awesome) as a short story or should I keep it safe and wait till I become better at writing?

In other words, the confusion is over what to publish: Should I write a good and important one (which has a lot of content for writing), or a new one?
