I'm reading a collection of Scalzi's short stories, and at the top of each one, he has a little anecdote about it. For "To Sue the World," he mentions that there is a free video on YouTube where you can watch him and Wil Wheaton read the piece together.

Wheaton nails to pretty absurd premise of Scalzi's works delivered with a tongue-in-cheek sincerity lol.

The book I'm reading by Scalzi right now is called Miniatures, and it's almost entirely short stories, though there is a long poem included in the collection too.

In general, Scalzi mostly writes shorter works. Even his novels aren't particularly long. We're reading Starter Villain for my book club read for August, and that clocks in at just 264 pages.
