I think I see a problem with these compilations. They’ll drop off the page pretty quickly, and then they’ll still need to be hunted down if anyone wants to reference them.
You might want to consider post-dating them to 2020 or stickying them in some way, if you can.
I’ve also put a new menu in the sidebar with the things I’ve completed. That may be about as sticky as this format allows. 🙂
SEVENTY CHAPTERS plus Preface & Afterword? Either this book is thick enough to be a murder weapon (Colonel Mustard, in the Conservatory, with Babylon Rising) or those are pretty short chapters.
And it is reassuring. One novel I have in the outline stage came out to around 40 chapters and I thought that was a bit many. Now I see it isn’t. (Though I’m not sure Jerry “Buck” Jenkins, GCAAT, is really a good example for comparison.)
Well, the paperback edition I used is 396 pages of story.
And yes, some of the chapters are super-short. Like one page. Dan Brown chapters, if you will. Or Stephenie Meyer depicting the passage of three months.
