A novel is a relatively long work of narrative fiction, normally written in prose form, and which is typically published as a book. The present English word for a long work of prose fiction derives from the Italian novella for "new", "news", or "short story of something new", itself from the Latin novella, a singular noun use of the neuter plural of novellus, diminutive of novus, meaning "new". Walter Scott made a distinction between the novel, in which (as he saw it) "events are accommodated to the ordinary train of human events and the modern state of society" and the romance, which he defined as "a fictitious narrative in prose or verse; the interest of which turns upon marvellous and uncommon incidents". However, many such romances, including the historical romances of Scott, Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick, are also frequently called novels, and Scott describes romance as a "kindred term". This sort of romance is in turn different from the genre fiction love romance or romance novel
A short story is a piece of prose fiction that typically can be read in one sitting and focuses on a self-contained incident or series of linked incidents, with the intent of evoking a "single effect" or mood.

A dictionary definition is "an invented prose narrative shorter than a novel usually dealing with a few characters and aiming at unity of effect and often concentrating on the creation of mood rather than plot."

The short story is a crafted form in its own right. Short stories make use of plot, resonance, and other dynamic components as in a novel, but typically to a lesser degree. While the short story is largely distinct from the novel or novella (a shorter novel), authors generally draw from a common pool of literary techniques.

Alex Cross's Trial    

LET HER HANG until shes dead!
Take her out and hang her now! Ill do it myself!
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Judge Otis L. Warren wielded his gavel with such fury I thought he might smash a hole in the top of his bench.
Quiet in the court! the judge shouted. Settle down, or byGod Iwill hold every last one of you sons of bitches in contempt.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
It was no use. Warrens courtroom was overflowing with disgruntled white citizens who wanted nothing more than to see my client hang. Two of them
on the left side began a chant that was soon taken up by others:
We dont care where. We dont care how.
We just wanna hang Gracie Johnson now!
The shouts from some among the white majority sent such a shiver of fear through the colored balcony that one woman fainted and had to be
carried out.
Another bang of the gavel. Judge Warren stood and shouted, Mr. Loomis, escort all those in the colored section out of my courtroom and out of the
building.
I couldnt hold my tongue another second.
Your Honor, I object! I dont see any of the colored folks being rowdy or disrespectful. The ones making the fuss are the white men in front.
Judge Warren glared over his glasses at me. His expression intimidated the room into silence.
Mr. Corbett, it is my job to decide how to keep order in my court. It is your job to counsel your clientand let me tell you, from where I sit, she needs all
the help she can get.
I couldnt disagree.
What I once thought would be an easy victory in the case of District of Columbia v. Johnson was swiftly turning into a disaster for Gracie and her
increasingly helpless attorney, Benjamin E. Corbett: that being myself.
Gracie Johnson was on trial for the murder of Lydia Davenport, a wealthy white woman who was active in Washington society at a level high
enough to cause a nosebleed. Worse, Gracie was a black woman accused of killing her wealthy white employer.
The year was 1906. Before it was all over, Iwas afraid they were going to hang Gracie.
I had to be careful they didnt hang me while they were at it.
