A bit more than a "short story", a little less than a "novel", right in the light to mid-weight novella range. This is the sort of length you can finish in a lazy weekend afternoon or over the course of a few workday lunch breaks or daily mass transit commutes.<br /><br />The best example of these I can point to right now is Lee Goldberg and William Rabkin's THE DEAD MAN series of short thrillers. These started about a year ago, and quickly became so successful that Amazon actually agreed to a publishing deal. A guest author is brought in to pen each story, and while they have an over-arching storyline, each is episodic enough that it can be enjoyed for its own merits.Jack Badelairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10932441028544500024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1646163054327608765.post-56960455126998094132012-04-04T05:31:03.915-04:002012-04-04T05:31:03.915-04:00Hi Jack,

Especially short stories (sub 200pgs.) since that niche is practically empty and I often hear people complaining about a books epic thickness/page-count. I'm curious about your sales with Nanok. If you'd care to share send me an e-mail.Runjikolhttp://blog.kharathel.comnoreply@blogger.com
