eio. rite. nothing really good to tell.
school's fine. skipped a few classes [sorry, mom. ;p] so BORED, dude. but the presence of my friends got me lost in the funtasy land. haha.
my stories going quite well though. It's like already 2000 words. so, i don't think it qualifies as a short story. now, wat's longer than a short story but shorter than a novel? tell me if you know. :)
aha! i found the word:
novellaAccording to Wikipedia:
"A novella is a narrative work of
prose fiction longer than a
short story but shorter than a
novel... the novella as having a word count between 17,500 and 40,000 or 60 to 130 pages..."
o, wait. i don't think my story is gonna bw 60 pages long. bleh.
aha! i found the
correct word:
novelette[then again] According to Wikipedia:
"A novelette (or novelet) is a piece of short
prose fiction. The distinction between a novelette and other literary forms, like a
novella, is usually based upon
word count. The
Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America Nebula awards for
science fiction define the novelette as having a word count between 7,500 and 17,500, or 45-85 pages, in length..."
7,500 words? u think i can reach that level? hmm... i hope so. :)
right. it's late people. school tmrw. :(
yea. school. bleh.
