I can't seem to lock down an idea for a novel. Sure, I have all sorts of novels I want to write, but I can't seem to gather enough steam to start one.

Instead, I'm going to take a shot at some short stories. I have all of these ideas jotted down, dozens of them. They pop into my head, I write them down, and move on. And they gather dust, some of them for years. I think I'm going to start using them for short stories, and gather up an anthology to publish.
