Sunday, May 14, 2006 - Ideas and Length

I've got a ton of ideas bouncing around in my head these days but, unfortunately, they're all for novels. And, the fact of the matter is that I simply don't want to write any novels these days. Obviously, it's a pretty sizeable commitment and, the more I go over Blurred Line and the false starts to GERA and Archive, the more it becomes clear that I'm just not ready to write a novel at this point in my development as a writer. I have Mass Romantic to work on and the goal of four more short stories to produce for the year, so that's what I'd like to concentrate on.

Still, all the ideas I've come up with lately are ideas for novels. It's a little frustrating, but I hold out hope that I'll think of some decent short story ideas soon.

Unrelated tangent: At some point over the next week there'll be some big news about changes over at Apodis Publishing, so stay tuned.
