Maybe *Tress of the Emerald Sea*? I have no idea what the target audience is supposed to be, it may be regarded as adult or young adult, who knows. In any case, it is based on very creative ideas and meets the rest of your description, too.
Maybe also *A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking* by T. Kingfisher? Again, nobody knows what the target age group is, but it’s fun!

You may like TJ Klune’s recent books, although they don’t fit into the short category. They’re adult fantasy books that are super wholesome and feature primarily queer characters.
