Zelda gives Link a blowjob (11)
@Lady that's what a little under 5k words per chapter?
Is that a lot for one chapter? I never developed a good sense for how long X amount of words is
re: Zelda gives Link a blowjob (11)
@coriander that’s pretty average; i consider anything above like 7.5k to be long and anything below like 4k to be short
it depends on typesetting of course but 500 words / page is a useful benchmark, so 5k words is about 10 pages
50k is what nanowrimo considers a “novel” fwiw, although modern novels can easily be twice that
re: Zelda gives Link a blowjob (11)
@Lady Yeah that's the other thing is I read so much genre fiction that anything shorter than like 450 pages is a "short" book and you don't hit "long" until you start pushing into 800+ so a 50k word novel is just not really within my realm of experience =P
re: Zelda gives Link a blowjob (11)
@coriander yeah for fantasy i would expect chapters more in the 7.5–10k range and lots of them
re: Zelda gives Link a blowjob (11)
@coriander this reddit post claims the hitchhiker’s guide and chronicles of narnia books are around 50k words whereas that the black prism by brent weeks is about 200k
re: Zelda gives Link a blowjob (11)
@coriander so this fanfic is about the length of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
