Not at all. I'm afraid that ever since discovering Lori Summers' The Paradigm of Uncertainty and its sequels aeons ago, I've become rather partial to the über long ones. Of course, length doesn't guarantee quality, so I really only have a select few authors I read in my (annoyingly small) spare time - Lori Summers, JL Matthews, you and Lady Alchymia, to name a few.

Doesn't mean I don't enjoy the "short n' sweet" route, but the epics really get my blood going. What can I say? It's a blessing or a curse, depending on how you look at it. Honestly? I consider it a blessing. ;)
