: Re: How do I write a story within a story? How can a protagonist, being a writer himself, share a full short story he has written with the readers within a short story? What are the techniques

The answer is somewhere around, like what mbakeranalecta and White S. wrote:

A small story can be the same like everyday life short stories. Your protagonist may pick up a diary or browse a blog and read the log of a day or part of it, or getting involved in a letter, report. He can do research to look for specific sources or to confirm hypothesis, and so the details will become important.
However I do not know much about your story, I would suggest to avoid turning to "reading a book-like thing".

The separation will be done by you, setting the atmosphere, maybe keeping a suspense with time-to-time throwing in the thoughts or feelings of the protagonist, maybe getting a conclusion at the end (as a debrief for the reader).
