My Love/Hate Relationship with Book C...
Revisioning!
I'm revising a book I wrote a draft of about six or seven years ago and I just arrived at a chapter that's 20k words long...a 20,000 word chapter! Isn't that like the size of the "novels" James Patterson is writing these days?

A little longer, and it would have been a stand-alone novella.
But -- chapters are the length they need to be.

I've thought about that and decided this one needs to be a lot shorter, lol!
