For some reason, most of us are mainly novel readers. I have every intention to read this or that short story collection I hear about, but I keep pushing them back to the "oh yeah, one day I'll read them, absolutely, no doubt"-land.
This challenge should bring that "one day" a bit closer, but not too quickly - there's time until the end of 2017.
Anybody with similar issues is welcome to join me!
Only collections by the same author are eligible, so no anthologies, and no separate short stories or novellas (they already have their own challenges), but rereads are okay.

The photo on the banner is by the great Hungarian-American photographer Andre Kertesz who on 1971 published a whole book of photos called "On reading".

Knowing myself and knowing the pile of other books I have laying around, I'll get to this challenge in about a month or so, but at least it's made public now and I'll be thinking about it furiously (while reading novels).
