Well, in English, when we talk about more than one'story', we use the word'stories'. It's a common rule for many nouns that end with 'y' preceded by a consonant. We change the 'y' to 'i' and add 'es'. So, for example, we say 'I have read two stories this week'.
Yes, a novel can be made plural. Just like with most nouns, when you have more than one, you add an 's' to make it 'novels'. For instance, 'I have read several novels this month.' shows the plural usage.
Writing in first person plural gives a collective voice and perspective. It helps convey a group's thoughts and emotions at once, adding depth to the narrative. Also, it can make the story feel more inclusive and communal.
In a first person plural short story, one key characteristic is the sense of community. It gives the feeling that a group is speaking as one. For example, when a family tells their story together. Another is the sharing of responsibility. Since it's a collective voice, no single character has to take all the blame or credit for what's being described. It also often creates a more inclusive atmosphere compared to a single - narrator story.
