Revised Estimate

[mmerriam]

So. I think the monster-hunting barista thing might not be a novel after all. It's starting to feel like it might be a long novelette or a novella. I'd be more worried, but I've managed to sell both the novellas I've written.

I suppose I'll just have to write the darn thing and see how many words it takes to tell the tale.

At least it's moving.

Speaking of tales, have you seen the guidelines I posted to the antho that JoSelle and I are editing? They're on my LJ in case you're interested.

I'm sometime surprised myself how long or how short a story can often be.

I haven't taken any writing classes in ages so please be tolerant . . .

I've never heard of a novelette or a novella. I was taught that you either write a novel or a short story.

Enlighten me, please?
