Story Types: The Novel

Middle Grade, Storytelling, The Vanishing Kidnapper, Thoughts on Writing, Writing Resources, Writing Spot, Young Adult

Two weeks ago, we began a discussion on story lengths. This came from a question I have been asked of late: what types of story types are there?

This is a more complex answer than it may appear. On the surface, we have two types of stories: the novel and the short story. We began with short story lengths. Last week, we explored novellas. And today, we will talk about the novel. That will lead into a discussion about National Novel Writing Month.
