Who knows! Worth a try.

It seems to vary from story to story, but this one is yeah, between 2.8 and 3.3k. The shortest was the first and a bit of an intro at under 2k. And for some reason chapter 3 was 6k. O.O I don't know how that happened.

Oh wow. I looked at my novel from last april. All my chapters are like 7k! I guess since there was more fighting and actions they were longer.

I always tended toward short chapters. There's a reason I'm on chapter 8 in my nano story already.
And your avi is pretty. I just love how the stockings came out.

It's one of those cooking timers that ring when the time is up. I set it to .. say 15 minutes, and turn everything off except words and just write for the whole time.

Ah that's cool. I can never turn everything off. I'd just zone out if I tried to do nothing but write.

Yeah, I seem to work good coming and going from my writing. Besides, if there's no one around to chat to, I just go back to my writing after the momentary distraction of checking here.

Chapter breaks give you a few extra words!

Aw that's cool for your friend. I would love to read more of your story.

google eye doc

chapter titles count towards the word count?
I honestly wouldn't have counted them. xD

I type the chapter title so it counts. I don't care if it's cheating or not. XD
And I shall bookmark the link to look at later.
