I have made mention of a number of types of short fiction – flash fiction, short stories, novelettes and novellas. They refer to various lengths of short fiction, though the word counts for the are not set in stone and can vary from person to person.

My definitions for my stories are as follows;

Flash Fiction: Up to 1000 words.

Short Stories: 1000-7500 words.

Novelettes: 7500-17500 words.

Novellas: 17500- 40000 words.

Novel: Over 40000 words.
