#ScribesAndMakers day 13: Our featured creator writes both novels and short stories. How do you feel about short fiction? Do you read short stories as often as novels?
I like reading short stories, but am awful at writing them. Not so much a fan of microfiction, but the range of roughly 2,000–8,000 words is pretty nice. Maybe even up to 10 or 12.
