Thanks for the suggestion! I'll certainly look into Nancy Fulda's short stories.

Yes, I find myself turning to the short-story format more and more. Mostly because I'm tired of the "franchise first" mentality of my favorite genres. I love endings. I love them so much that I want every book I read to have one (just coming to a stop at a convenient point doesn't count)... then I want the authors I enjoy reading to write something completely new and unrelated to what they just wrote.

But I'm obviously in a ridiculously, hopeless minority, there.
