: Re: Can several related short-stories make a good base to write a novel? I've been writing related short-stories for years, but around 10 months ago, I started to think about a novel based on these

A really good example for this is Night Watch. Sergei Lukyanenko wrote three related "short stories" that, read together, form the book.

So, related stories that could be linked to a same plot, could be released as a single novel.

Another point of view would be Matrix Reloaded, even not being a book, but a movie.

Matrix is the main plot line but in Animatrix you will find a lot of related short stories that will help to understand the main plot and even open the curtains for it.

I guess this second option would fit into what you want, since you already have the shorties and want to write a novel that could extends them.
