Yeah, I think the novel is the way to go. You usually only see collections after a writer has already made his/her bones. Of course, there are exceptions, like Harlan Ellison and Clive Barker. But those strike me as long shots.

I got nowhere with a set of linked stories last year. I only pursued it with ten agents but four advised me I'd have to have a novel first or at least make the linked stories into a continuous narrative. Maybe unlinked stories will fare better.
