This has been on my mind for a while, and I am very curious to see if anyone has ever published a collection of their own short stories and if they have been successful at all.
My problem with writing is that it takes me months, if not years to think of a weak storyline with hardly any creativity, and the stories go nowhere. I'm not very good at coming up with long, elaborate stories that are totally original (because I get a lot of ideas from other books, which is why I love to write fanfiction.)
However, I love to write short stories, and I do know that there are authors who have published a collection of them. What I want to know is, is it a good idea to do this, or will it be a failure because no one really knows who you are enough to care?
