I believe so. Novelettes are like between 10,000 and 20,000 or so words. Novellas are between 20,000ish and 50,000 (that’s where we get into novels 😉). I’m not an expert but that’s what I’ve been told. I haven’t made it past 30,000 words yet so we’ll see if I can write novels eventually. 😉@sarafini

@devastate-lasting Never heard of her, but that sounds cool!
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
Yeah I saw you talking about that earlier. I love stranger things and gravity falls (though that one probably doesn’t count lol). I’m not sure if my horror story is lovecraftian. It kinda has an alternate dimension, but it doesn’t really have any gore/ grotesque things like stranger things does.

Hey! I joined a few months ago so you probably haven’t met me yet either. I write Historical and Contemporary Fiction. Along with writing I love homesteading and baking Polish desserts. 😀
Nice to meet you!
He must increase, but I must decrease.
@power Eyy love to see that you’re still here! One of the core tenets of the forum.
@booksandbeakers Oo that’d be exciting!
@folith-feolin Eyyy Lovecraft is definitely something else! He has beautiful prose!
@felicity Nice to meet you! What are some of the desserts you make?Lately, it's been on my brain
Would you mind letting me know
If hours don't turn into daysOne of my favorites is a chocolate cake called wuzetka. It has a layer of whipped cream, chocolate sauce and chocolate frosting! It was invented after WWII in a bakery in Warsaw, Poland. And surprisingly, it is not overwhelmingly sweet like I thought it would be. My family really enjoys it.
Also, I can’t talk about Polish desserts without mentioning paczki, which are a special fried doughnuts with a plum jam filling. 😀

@devastate-lasting Eyyy, long time no see! I’ve also been pretty absent from the forum the past *checks watch* year I guess, so I’m in a similar boat as you, lol. Good to see you around again! How’s life?
“Seven seconds till the end. Time enough for you. Perhaps. But what will you do with it?”
@felicity That sounds really good! I’d love to try it someday!
@lewilliams Eyyyyyyy there’s that familiar platypus profile picture! Good to see you too! Life is. Kind of a roller-coaster, I have a really busy semester ahead of me and I’m not sure how I’m going to balance writing with it, but we’ll see. How are you?Lately, it's been on my brain

@devastate-lasting. (I didn’t reply yet!? So sorry, girl!)
Great to see you again too!!! 😉 I’m so glad you’re back! =)
Yes, high school is very much “one of those things”…XD (especially the Algebra!!! XD)
Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. But I do understand, really, I do. We all have those moments. I’ll be praying for you! <3 Just remember to always make sure you take care of yourself, girl. I know it’s hard when we get busy, but your health and wellbeing is very important to take care of. <3
I’m sorry if that sounds like scolding or something like that…that’s not what I mean to sound like, and I’m preaching to the choir as well. XD
I’m so glad you’re back, tho! I can’t wait till I get to talk to you even more! 😉
@freedomwriter76 Lol wait till you learn about Linear Algebra (though you probably won’t, that’s my cross to bear).
Aww, thank you for the prayers! Yeah, nah, my friends are like that to me as well, except even more harsh, though I know it’s cuz they care about me.
Yeah, can’t wait to talk to you more too!
Lately, it's been on my brain

@devastate-lasting. NO, don’t scare me like that!!!! XD *shudders* Even Algebra II sounds terrifying, but Linear Algebra!? Naw, never.
You are very welcome! <3
Yes, I am responding two months late… I’m so sorry!
Hey! I’m doing well! 😀 I joined The Author Conservatory in January, and that has been beyond amazing! The novel I’m working on for that is a retelling of the story of Gideon but with pirates. 😉
How are you? What have you been working on?
@freedomwriter76 Hahaha. There’s more algebra than I expected but yeah, it’s one of the main reasons I’ve been gone from the forum for the past few months.
@lydia-s Whoa, that’s awesome! I was debating on joining the Conservatory, haha, but my parents would kill me. Your novel sounds really cool; would love to read it one day!I’m currently working on my crime novel for class, but I’ve been mad burnt out this past week from exams so I’ve been procrastinating… *sigh*
