Call out to Authors with novels.
Hurm. Color me confused. Are you saying you would consider a novella + stories in a collection that topped out at 30k?
Please clarify for those of us with meager math skills. [image]

2 novellas leaves 40k words for shorts
Total 100k
Thats what I am seeing...![]()
Definitely interested.

Hmm. I'd interpreted that as a collection of novellas with a maximum length of 30k each. Probably squeeze 4-5 into a book with the usual 100k length target.
Sci-fi isn't really my thing, but I can't wait to see where this goes!
Don't be confused Nickie.
What I was saying is that if we do a novella I want the stories in it to be 30K. It would contain 4 stories for a total of 120K.
And writingdad, if you'd like to collect up the novellas, the job's yours. Contact me via PM or e-mail.
that's what she said!!! (finally! i get to use that line here!!)I'm interested, buy I don't have a finished one yet!

Doc, you just gave me a bigger shiver than selling my first story. I'm going to make some notes and questions and you'll hear from me by morning if that's okay. (Working nights right now, so even on my days off I'm up past dawn.)
<rubbing my hands together with glee!>
W00t!

So my 20k novella about a murder mystery involving an ancient order of god-like rabbits won't fly? ![]()

Big, long winded PM sent, Doc. Let me know what you think.

That may depend on how serious you are and what kind of length range we wind up with. Would you call it SF or Fantasy?
Color you interested?-nickie
Yes ma'am! :)

Not joking. Gaiman-esque modern fantasy. I love the damned thing, but it's length is right at the no-man's range where no one wants to touch it.
The fact that you had to ask me if I was serious must mean you not have read any of my other stuff yet ![]()
Kody Boye is writing a fantasy novel.

I must mention my dark fantasy novel is at 148-something-something-something words (meaning it's at 148K.) There's no way I could split it. I've already had to split the originally storyline apart, which is why after this book, I'll be working on its sequel, LOL!
148K!
Holy shit! You're a writing machine, Kody.
I think he must mentally project the words into the processor.

I like the idea of a novella collection.
