Re: Length...

I don't know where the 750-word came from, but if that is what you are comfortable with, continue it, please. But your last installment just left me thirsty for more.

I am guilty of the same... short installments with long times between. If I was faithful to my fiction, I'd keep it short but regular. But I'm not. So I think longer is better.

Of course, there is such a thing as too long. 10,000 words is prolly too long.
