“Novels are not songs, they are symphonies - big, brawling, sprawling critters that leave room for characters to develop’ struggle, flail. and sometimes suceed” - J Sydney Jones (author of Time of the Wolf).

Short stories, poetry, verse and prose, they all tell a story, but they don’t tell THE story, the symphony and the novel are the only two forms that do; the best leave a little bit of desire, for a little bit more - the sequel.
