I abandoned script writing in favor of short stories a while back, and hope to write a novel(s?) before I croak.
It's a noble goal! I feel short stories are the quickest way to a great novel. Gives you somewhere to work out your voice and style.
I'm a much bigger fan of short stories vs. novels. I don't know, short stories feel more like art to me in both creating and reading them. If you've got a flare for the short form, don't abandon it. But good luck on all your writing endeavors, and welcome to the forum.
Howdy! Just had to look up “Saskatchewan” and discovered you’re from Canada? I’m happy to learn something new and hope that you do too. Welcome to our cosy little community.
