I spent years writing short stories because I thought it was what you were supposed to do. I got better at it ... I can even write, sell, and enjoy short fiction these days ... but for the most part, I'd rather be writing novels. And I wonder how much sooner I could have broken in as a novelist had I ignored the advice and just written what I *really* wanted to write.
