The Long Ones is a rare compilation of novellas by American writer Joe R. Lansdale, which are too long to be "short stories", but too short to be "novels". It was apparently only printed once, in hardcover form, in 1999.http://www.necropublications.com/the-long-ones.html Original publisher website.{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=AhQ8AAAACAAJ|title=The Long Ones|last=Lansdale|first=Joe R.|date=1999-10-01|publisher=Necro Publications|isbn=9781889186153|language=en}}
