Can you recommend some stories shorter than a novel?

Yes, for example, 'The Gift of the Magi' by O. Henry is a short story which is shorter than a novel. It's a heart - warming tale of a poor couple who sacrifice their most precious possessions for each other.

Sure. 'The Little Red Hen' is a relatively short story. It's about a hen who finds some grains of wheat and asks the other animals for help in planting, harvesting, and baking bread, but they all refuse. In the end, she does it all herself and enjoys the bread without sharing with those lazy animals.

A poem is often shorter than a novel. Poems use concise language and unique forms to convey deep emotions or ideas in a relatively short space.

A short story is usually shorter than a novel. It focuses on a single event or a limited period of time.

A short - form non - fiction work like an extended essay could be shorter than a book yet longer than a novel. Novels are mainly fictional stories, while an extended essay on a particular non - fictional topic, say, a historical analysis or a scientific exploration, can be of a length that is shorter than a full - fledged book but more substantial in length compared to a novel.

The protagonist in the story practiced the Five Thunder Dharma and came and went in mythical stories such as the Legend of Liu Yi and the Legend of the White Snake. A god could destroy a god, a devil could destroy a devil, and a saber could destroy a god and devil. It could kill a Buddha and also kill an immortal! I hope you like this fairy's recommendation.

Another form shorter than a novel is the vignette. It's like a brief snapshot of a moment, a character, or a place. It doesn't have the complexity or length of a novel but can be very evocative. For example, in some collections, vignettes are used to create a mood or atmosphere related to a certain theme.

Some words for shorter fiction than a novel are 'novelette', 'novella' and'short story'.

Yes, there are quite a few. 'Novella' is one. It has more length and complexity than a short story but is not as long as a novel. Another one is 'flash fiction'. It's a very short form of fiction, sometimes just a paragraph or two long. It can be a great way to quickly tell a story with a punch. Also, 'micro - fiction' is similar to flash fiction, being extremely short.

"You are gentler than the stars" and "The new god in the chat group" are both short stories with fewer words. They are suitable for your needs ~ I hope you will like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
