I've just finished "Bird" so I'm turning to Tara now.

10 chapters delivered. 15 still to go. Looks like being a longer book than Bright Horizons.

The chapters are going very well :) My word count looks like being very high indeed - I got onto a bit of a roll :)
I think my extended chapters will definitely contribute to making the book longer.

don't forget that there is always Mr Guillotine, the editor. Seriously, though, I'm glad the chapters are going well.

I was very much hoping 4,000-5,000 words might just be ok :) I'm coupling special, classic scenes and interpreting them with outrageously dramatic and erotic approaches. Just bought The Satanic Rites of Dracula to watch Valerie Van Ost (from Dead Man's Treasure) playing a buxom vampire.

4,000 to 5,000? Only if each one is a pearl! :D

word account is important..somewhat. then again, at times, less (words) is more..as well

I've been making sure I don't exceed 2,000. My chapter for "Invasion of the Earthmen" that I just started is struggling to reach 1,000 at the moment...

My chapters are well in hand, as well, and I'm rather surprised how well I'm sticking to the word count so far! :lol: For the most part I'm around 2000, give or take a couple hundred words.

I'm pleasantly surprised by the angles I've found for the episodes that I didn't consciously choose to do, but picked up at the end when there were no other takers. It just goes to show that there's something to find and write about in every episode of this series. :D
