Well, I thought the subject might get your attention.
I am wondering, after reading many posts which refer to it, how people feel about the length of stories posted here (and elsewhere).
I have heard complaints like "It took longer to load than to read", but personally, I don't really want a long story.About 6-8 pages is the max for stories I want to download, print and read at night in bed with my lover. At least, thats my favorite pastime with them.
So I am wondering, do people want novellas, or a really good collection of short stories? What is the overwhelming concensus? Laurel, have you seen a trend in any fashion?
By the way, Thank you Laurel for posting my stories! What a thrill to see my stuff posted with so many other quality writers! Gives me a boost to continue and get better!
