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.  |
I'm pretty big on stand-alones myself--with endings. I detest cliff-hanger endings that make me feel as if I bought half a book...
