For some reason, people think novelists should do more than write books.  Articles, short stories, that sort of thing.  Problem is a true novelist has a difficult time restraining their involvement.  Characters, like real people, want to live long lives, despite the desires of their creator--the writer--to keep their stories confined to five thousand words or less.  I just took the long way around to explain that for a novelist like me, writing anything under sixty-five to seventy thousand words is akin to pulling teeth, and one excuse why we novelists don't often do it.

 

I have written a short story or two, here or there, but my focus, my love, my pure-D passion is novels--adult fiction and paranormal thrillers, with a little mystery on the side. 

 

 

Thanks for stopping by.
