I'm mostly a novelist these days, but I have written short stories in Fantasy, Science Fiction and horror.

Most of my books have been written in the form of fantasy.

I have a lot of fantasy.

I know it may sound silly, but I think my short stories have a life and identity of their own. They crop up in all sorts of places.

I love fantasy. I grew up reading fantasy.

I've always been a huge fantasy fan. I was always interested in fairy tales and anything with magic or dragons... I was always drawn to those types of stories.

Short stories are wonderful and extremely challenging, and the joy of them, because it only takes me three or four months to write, I can take more risks with them. It's just less of your life invested.

I have some other novels I want to write. I have a lot of short stories - I love the short story.

I am also working on a couple of short stories for anthologies. This is new to me and I'm enjoying it.

On the other hand, now that I'm not dependent on fiction for my income, I've been writing more short stories despite the fact that there's no real paying market for short horror other than Cemetery Dance.
