What is a novella? Well to put it simply, a novella is something that is too long to be a short story, but too short to be a novel. Think of it as a little book, usually about one quarter the length of a full book. They may be smaller, but they still deliver. Check out my most recent novellas and see what I mean:
Deadly Seven
Six young demons raised from the bowels of hell have been set loose in the mortal realm. Their goal: to harvest souls for their dark master below. Despite their best efforts, they have only achieved their objective with admittedly questionable results.
Azaroth, a much older, but only slightly more competent, senior demon has been tasked with leading the group. His leadership style is slightly less cuddly than Genghis Khan’s, as he does not believe in the carrot and the stick methodology. He prefers a stick in each hand, with maybe a dagger hidden up his sleeve for good measure.
Azaroth takes his responsibility seriously and will not accept failure for any reason. Of course, he also has no idea how to avoid it.
These are the Deadly Seven. Only time will tell if the hapless demons will ultimately prove to be a bigger threat to humanity … or to themselves.
Deadly Seven, by G. Allen Wilbanks, follows the exploits of seven less than capable demons as they struggle to learn the art of temptation. Each chapter includes creature illustrations by Jason Jacobo which only add to the enjoyment of reading this book. Available in paperback and on Amazon Kindle.

SPIRITUS EX MACHINA
Book #2 of the “3 Ghosts in the Machine” collection
Alexander Devin’s life is about to change.
Pulled from the edge of death, he wakes to find his mind has been preserved in a new body, a mechanical body that will never know pain, illness, or old age. But it is much more than that.
Zander’s mind has been downloaded into the Spector, an experimental, self-aware, long-distance star ship. For now, he is little more than an observer on board, a ghost in the machine. One day, if he can prove himself, he may be allowed full control over the ship. If not, he will be turned off and condemned to the Nothing.
Zander will do anything to avoid the Nothing.

THEY
Book #1 of the “3 Ghosts in the Machine” collection.
When Michael and Amy move into the house of their dreams, they quickly find themselves trapped in a waking nightmare. Something else is in the house, something uninvited, and THEY are making themselves right at home.
“I do not know what They are. I don’t know where They came from. All I know for certain is They appeared in the house about six weeks after Amy and I moved in.
They may have always been in the house, but I don’t believe that’s true. I believe they found something compelling about the old building that drew them to it. My wife and I were merely the unfortunate souls who resided there when They arrived.”
