These days I enjoy the shorter works. If you think about it, these days with frantic schedules, a shorter book fits the bill for many readers.Regina Carlyslehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316730032624449669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730677737285268697.post-24343155829110785182009-08-26T08:34:52.450-05:002009-08-26T08:34:52.450-05:00Julia,

It's a great way to get to know several authors.

Oh!...Quickies is a far more evocative word...mmmm. Oh! What? Were you saying something? I was lost in contemplation here. You are right! They are simply short stories. I think they like to say "Novella" because it makes the reader feel better about paying $5 for the book. :)Fran Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06247024581813249889noreply@blogger.com
