Quote: You need to blast through another 30,000 or so to a conclusion (even if its not the full ending) and then take a breath to look at revisions.It may be longer than that, I haven't really gotten into the main story yet at 30,000. Quote: Shen is also the surname of the principal female character in George Hemry's "JAG in Space" series. Hemry's better known these days as bestselling "nuts and bolts" SF writer Jack Campbell.Quote: Shen is a popular outer space name.Quote: Should Disney challenge your copyright you have incontrovertable dated proof of copyright online.I don't remember where I got it from, but it was none of those. Originally the name was owned by a starship captain in a long buried Star Trek fanfic. Quote: Nothing wrong with long chapters if that serves the story - or no chapters at all. My Transdimensional Travel Company novel has seven chapters total, averaging out at 11,000 words each.I don't worry as much about the length as I do telling the story. World Class is probably going to be much shorter than Traders...I think. | |||||||
