Inside you there are two wolves.

One is Will Wood.

One is Freddy Mercury.

What do you mean I’m not Sherlock Holmes I literally love bees and am nosey as fuck

i think that the short story form is best for the mystery and detective genre in particular as it allows the development of intrigue and interest in such a brief period of time. i think that one of the essences of mystery is thrill and suspense, which, yes, can be built over a long time within a novel-length story, but i think that mystery short stories definitely have a charm that full-length mysteries, although wonderful, don't possess.

i mean, one of the first, argued to be *the* first, forms of a modern mystery is edgar allan poe's "the murder in rue morgue", a short story. another icon of mysteries is the sherlock holmes stories, the vast majority of which are short stories. the father of mysteries in japan, edogawa rampo-san, mostly wrote short stories and rarely any novels.

the mystery genre is aptly suited for short stories, and short stories are, in my opinion at least, the best form of mysteries
