Novel Watch: Top 15 Longest Stories

As promised, here is a list of the longest stories and series I’ve written in my 15.5 years of writing fiction. I included series as well as individual works — after all, if this book ends up longer than my longest series, that will be quite an accomplishment, and will make me rather happy to boot. It’s high time I broke a personal record, and I think I’m well on the way towards that. We’ll see. Note that my current project has already moved up to #8! Woo!
