I've seldom met anyone who thought anything about short fiction. Even my super lit snob friends stick mostly to novels. I wouldn't even say they're disinterested, it's like it's never even occurred to them that it's an option to seek it out on its own and not happen across it in the New Yorker or whatever

i dont have the attention span for novels so i only read short stories.

it would be a strange world if short stories were treated like movies (and long form novels like tv series)
