I do have a novel (72,000 words!) but it took me three years or so to write. I'm doing short stories this year too.
There's one I'm very pleased with. It's a story about a perfectly normal, middle class couple who have a baby which turns out to have inherited vampirism from his grandfather, and how his father comes to terms with having a vampiric son. It's a children's story, and probably a wonderful metaphor about mixed race children or something. Best thing is, it came into my head with illustrations, which I am having to describe in great detail. A picture isn't quite a thousand words, but it's at least two hundred and fifty.:D
