I don't know, my very favorite stories are never really novel-length. Novel-length stories are good, sometimes, but oftentimes you're reading them for plot and suspense reasons more than purely excellent writing. There are exceptions, though of course!
Oh, totally agreed. I think that's why I rarely read them -- I don't have the patience for them, because good plot isn't everything. Sure, it's a lot, but it can't carry a whole story, at least not for me.
This implies to me that Upsidaisium was never, in fact, even written.
