@clairec My novels usually run around 80,000, even though I am late. But of course, 50,000 to 100,000 plus is fine too. An author said to me once that the word count doesn’t matter too much though, it’s the story that counts.

@Corissa-maiden-of-praise. Ha Ha!! 😀 Yass, Hot Chocolate! I guess it’s just the right time of year to be drinking it over there; here it’s only late September, but it’s stinking hot already. I don’t like summer. 🙁

I come again… In need of a bit of help.
I have another new character.
And he’s awesome.
But too see him….would be even more awesome.
He has brown hair, feathery and of average length, with a nice professional cut. He always has this manipulative, broad smile,…[Read more]

@seekjustice, ha ha! Siblings can be so distracting, can’t they? 😛 They can also be very useful for inspiration, though. 🙂 Thanks for writing with me.

I’m finishing now, @seekjustice. Actually, I finished about ten minutes ago, but I was busy starting a new topic. If you want to know more about my book, follow this link.
I wrote 600 words, but spent a while working on plot too, so overall I was pretty productive. How’d you go? -
ClaireC replied to the topic Book Length in the forum General Writing Discussions 8 years, 9 months ago
Also, this is the book that I talked about (a long while ago!) in the ‘Novel Ideas’ section of the forum. I was just reading through all of your responses and realized that there was one thing that came through for everyone. “Are you mixing up history? / What do you mean by alternative historical fiction?” So here’s the answer. I’m not changing…[Read more]

Hey all, I’ve got a quick question.
What do you personally think is an average/good word count for a novel. Also, what are your own word counts?
I’ve estimated that mine will be somewhere between 80,000 and 100,000. It depends on how much I expand or cut out in the editing stage.
