How long should your story be?
How many chapters should your story have?
How many scenes should a chapter have?
This is enogh to give you a headache. I don't think there is a correct answer to these questions. So what you feel you need to do. is what you need to do.
I write 20 chapters...Three scenes in each chapter...I read somewhere a long time ago, that was a good formula to stick to. I don't know it that works for today, but that is what I do.
20 pages per chapter gives me 400 pages....It is easy to plot out this way for me. Easy for me to see if I need to add more pages.
That is what I do. What do you think?????
How do you determine the word length???
