Your blog looks great and is already full of such helpful information!<br /><br />Per your above questions, I structure my chapters by gut-feeling. If it feels too long, I go back and look for those little arcs that might be better off standing on their own. And if it seems too short/empty, I search for where those little arcs might need some more meat. When I finish a chapter with that, "Ah!" feeling, then I know I might have finally done something right! :)<br /><br />Best of luck with the blog! I'll be adding you to my "follow" list!K. S.

It is exactly what I need to read after NaNo craziness is over and we can slow down our writing pace and do more "thinking" about how and what to write.<br /><br />Laurie Halse (rhymes with waltz- had to add that for her) Anderson is a personal favorite of mine, too. She definitely rocks, as well as shining a light on the path.<br /><br />I've bookmarked this site and shall return!patti.mallett_pphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01453756965198648016noreply@blogger.com
