I know that it's much easier to publish a book at 60k - 80k than a massive 200k one or a tiny 20k.
However, when I go to the library or book store, there are always these tiny kids' books. For example, Beast Quest. They're so damn popular! They're all about 80 pages, 20k.
I guess it depends on the genre as well, but it's still harder to get a small novella published over a preferred 70k novel, right?
Most of the short books are a loooonngggg series of books, though. Like Goosebumps. It's probably easier to write them short so the authors can keep pounding them out one after the other.
