What is a "novelette"?
A novelette is a work of fiction that is longer than a short story but shorter than a novella. It typically ranges from about 7,500 to 20,000 words. Novelettes offer enough space to develop characters and plot more extensively than a short story, but are more concise than novellas. They often focus on a single event or theme, providing a complete and engaging narrative within a shorter length. Novelettes are commonly used in literary magazines and anthologies, offering readers a satisfying story in a compact format.
