Why are all your books so short?

Great question! I believe, if word count determined the quality of a book, dictionaries would top bestsellers list every week :) 

I’m sure you’ve encountered a 300,000 word brick of a book that puts you to sleep in 6 minutes. I’m also certain that you’ve read something short, even a movie dialogue perhaps, that has stayed with you forever. (I’ll post 2 of my favourites at the end of this answer, so stay tuned 🙂

I publish shorter works because in today’s diminishing attention span world, shorter books are simply more accessible. You may never need a dictionary while reading my books. Some people don’t like that and it’s okay. Short is my thing. I love spectacular knockouts in 7 rounds rather than stretching them out to round 17, that’s just me. 

That does not mean I’m cutting corners. In fact, more often than not, I take longer, way longer to write shorter fiction than a lot of my author friends and acquaintances. You can rarely create the impact you can with fewer words than you can with more. Fewer words trust and honour the reader’s intelligence to fill in the gaps and complete the story in their own heads. 

I’m nowhere near as good as the examples coming up, but I do make the effort. Here’s a masterclass in writing short:

Example #1 comes from the movie ‘Nothing but the Truth’.

A man can live a good life, be honourable, give to charity, but in the end, the number of people who come to his funeral is generally dependent on the weather.

Example #2 is the famous 6 word story often attributed to Ernest Hemingway.

For sale, baby shoes, never worn.

The last inspired me to write a bunch of 3,6 and 9 word stories as well. They are nowhere near as good, but if you would like to read them, just write to me at sameer(at)channelinghigherwisdom(.)com and I’ll send them to you.
