My Best Bud Update 2 - and How Long Should a Chapter Go?

To everyone that sent an email about chapter five, thank you! It was a short chapter, but I'm so happy everyone that emailed liked it. A few of you suggested a much longer chapter than usual to make up for it. Well, it's already going there. I'm thinking I will need to break it into two parts.

That brings me to another question. What size chapter is appropriate for posting to a website?
When I'm writing erotic stories, not thinking about posting them to a website, my chapters generally run around 9,000 to 11,000 words, around 20 pages. For My Best Bud, I've tried to keep it a bit smaller, around 2,500 to 3,000 words, or just over five pages in the word processor. Comment with your thoughts, please!

Chapter six is already where I would ending a chapter, but there is so much more to happen yet. It's already sitting at 3,500 words, or over eight pages in the word processor, and I've got at least that much more to write! Should it be broken into two parts? Your thoughts and feedback on this would be helpful too!

It was my goal, and I was truly hoping to, finish chapter six yesterday and submit it. I didn't make it. There were a few interruptions, and I also needed to step away and just take a break for a bit at one point too. Around 10:00 PM I decided I needed to stop writing and finish today.

It is just after 10:00 AM now, I'm sitting outside on my back porch with a mocha... Time to write!

Thanks everyone, and as always...

Happy reading,
