A Story That Hit Close to Home
A few weeks ago, I found myself curled up on the couch with a cup of tea and a hunger for something that didn’t demand hours of commitment—a story that could move me, surprise me, and stay with me… all in one sitting. That’s when I stumbled upon Novella, a debut short work being crowdfunded on Kickstarter. As someone who’s often overwhelmed by the size of my “to-read” stack, the idea of an emotionally powerful, beautifully written short work felt like a breath of fresh air.
What Is Novella?
Novella is the publishing debut of Jay Swill—a concise, impactful story crafted for modern readers who crave substance in a short format. This isn’t just a quick read; it’s an invitation into a richly drawn world, told with poetic language and bold honesty. Jay is taking the publishing process into their own hands with the help of backers, building a community around literary storytelling that doesn’t follow traditional publishing constraints.
Why It Matters
In a world of endless scrolling and surface-level content, Novella brings us back to the roots of storytelling. It champions depth over length, reflection over resolution. Backing this project means supporting an emerging writer who’s betting on craft, not algorithms. Plus, you’re not just getting a book—you’re getting a limited edition piece of art, shaped by intention and reader connection.
