It is the most challenging to an author, regardless of genre, because you have a very limited space for establishing your characters, setting, and situation. (OK, short-shorts are more of a challenge, but they're just nuts.) As I've sorted through my books recently I've realized that much of what I own is short story collections.<BR/><BR/>I wonder - could you de-flesh a story? A typical comic book (or series of four or six books)could easily spill over into novella territory, if everything is translated over. But imagine you had taken a short story and fleshed it out into one of your comic book stories. What would that original story have looked like?D.B.
