Fate of the New Crucible-Short Stories?

[KimMH]

Longer is not always better.

The only thing that is always better is better.

Fortunately, David R. George III is always better.

I agree about Mr. George. As for your fiirst statements; if that's your story you'd best stick with it . . .

 

[KRAD]

Yeah, but the MyrU books have a pretty hard cap on the word count......

 

[KimMH]

I've yet to indulge in any of the MyrU books - I will be glad to be proven wrong. My point - poorly made - is that much of TrekLit goes too quickly - it's like a vacation you don't want to end. And Mr Mollman was determinedly gracious about my little joke. Thank you for that. I think.

The "ha!" is "As if David R. George III could ever write anything short!"

The trick was Marco told David it was a short story collection, not a novella collection. A short story for David is 50,000 words.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Here's the Crucible novel I'd like to read:

Spoiler: Crucible

Crucible: Robau

We just need more of DRG3, period.

 

[David R. George III]

Just as with my Dominion offering in Worlds of Deep Space Nine, Volume Three, Olympus Descending, I have a hard word count for my Myriad Universes entry. The key to successfully not going beyond that number, of course, lies in devising a tale that does not require more words in the telling. Simple.
