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.

The Last Juror    

Ford County in Mississippi isn't the most exciting place in the United
States. Not much happens in Clanton, the small town at the center
of Ford County. Most of the time it's quiet and people live there without
any big problems. Most of the time ...
But in March 1970, something did happen in Clanton. There was a
murder. You don't forget a murder. Thirty years later, I can remember
everything about that day. My name is Willie Traynor, and in 1970 I was
the editor of the Ford County !Jewspaper, the Times. I talked to the dead
woman's sister and her neighbors. I talked to the lawyers and the police. I
wrote the story for the Times, and some weeks later I sat through the trial.
And I was a friend of one of the jurors.
Rhoda Kassellaw was the dead woman. She met her killer in a bar.
They talked and then they danced. But when the man wanted more, she
pushed him away. He was very angry. Rhoda left the bar and he followed
her home. He saw the light in her bedroom, and he quietly went in the
back door. Rhoda's killer had a knife and he cut her many times
