Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA) defines a novel as a work of fiction of 40,000 words or more. That means I technically qualify as a novelist. Never mind that a novel published today is about 100,000 words and an epic science fiction or fantasy novel is about 200,000 words.
To celebrate my new title, I baked six-spice oatmeal raisin cookies--minus cinnamon, so five-spice, I guess. Mthr. M-G appreciated it. My eyes appreciated getting out from in front of a back-lit computer monitor for an hour.
