The I'm Writing Thread.... Celebrate your pages written etc Part II.
the neurovore of Zur-En-Aargh:
Through pass and tighten on first three chapters of #3. The second one is extremely full, and I am not yet sure I have got it right.
Also, trying to get writing done when continually interrupted by queasy innards is not fun. And my mother will be here for a couple of weeks and then I am off travcelling again, so this is probably the last serious writing sessing I will get for a month or so.
The Deposed King:
I just uploaded Admiral's Tribulation book 3 of my spineward sectors novels. Expect it out between 6-12 hours after Amazon finishes reviewing.

wow...if word can be trusted my total for 14 chapters is 91,086 words...8O
Out of curiosity, how many pages/words do you all write per chapter?
I'm averaging 13 pages and 6600 words or so per chapter...
Wordmaker:
I tend towards shorter chapters. An average chapter for me will be about 2,000 words. But with my current WIP, I'm keeping some chapters as short as 1,500.

Falon Half Blood - 30k
With my current work I'm shooting for 2.5k per chapter. With some of my previous books I tried to keep it around 5k. But it would dip lower and sometimes go up to 7.5k. For me chapters revolve around two things. Where there is a good break in the flow of the story needed, or character transitions and the other factor is how much I can write in a day's work.
