What was a novel with less than 2,000 words called?

Answer 1

Fictions with less than 2,000 words were usually called short stories, short story collections, mini-novels, short stories, and so on. These novels usually have fewer words, but the plot, characters, and theme are relatively simple. They often use the story of one or more main characters as the main line to tell some short experiences, stories, or plots, which are suitable for readers to read in their leisure time.
