Digging into a great long book, like JR Ward gives me a treat. But with those, I have to set aside time to indulge, b/c I can't put them down. Shorts I love to read between writing. I've written lots of novellas for Aphro and even a couple of single titles with vignettes (ghost stories) in them, so clearly I love writing short. They are a challenge. And I do love a challenge! Great topic , Vonna I love reading all lengths. Digging into a great long book, like JR Ward gives me a treat. But with those, I have to set aside time to indulge, b/c I can’t put them down.

Sometimes I am in the mood for immediate gratification, in which case the shorter novellas are just what I am looking for. Other times I want to get more involved...ergo a full length novel is what I reach for. I love it when my fav authors write both types of stories that way no matter what mood I am in I am guarateened a good read! Hi Vonna,

Stephanie Burke and Dana Marie Bell are two of my favorite authors and some of their stories are consistently 'short'. I just recently read Cherry Crush by Burke and loved it. The length was perfect for the story. I like your longer and shorter stories. Like I said, it depends on the author. If I like them a lot, I'll like anything they write. If not... well, everyone has their preferences. Also, my favorite story of yours is Dangerous Ride. I re-read it all the time... :mrgreen: To be completely honest, length doesn’t matter to me as much as a good story.

Anthologies and short stories for quick reads and novel length when I really want to settle in with a book. I like to mix the story lengths.

Its gives me an idea of their style of writing. There have been times when I've enjoyed the story so much that I did not want it to end so soon.
