Brian LeechWhat is the scholarship equivalent of a novella? I’d like to write and read short books that are both more developed and detailed than an article but shorter than a regular monograph. Are there examples of this kind of thing being regularly published by someone? #AcademicToots #AUPresses #ScholarlyPublishing #UniversityPresses #HigherEd #histodons
@brianleechphd Forerunners at U of Minnesota Press a possible example. https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/series/forerunners-ideas-first
We also publish lecture series @uncpress that include some works of this length and are suggestive of what you can do with the form.
