Any suggestions...

Apr 17, 2009 17:11

I've done strictly one shots(with the exception of 1 story that ended up in 3 parts) up until now. I got a plot bunny that has completely taken over and I'm actually really proud of it, but a one shot would NOT do it any justice.   I'm looking for a bit of advice on setting up a chaptered story.  My 2 concerns are these:

I have what looks to be 6 'sections' to the story that I could do as 6 chapters some short some long, or I could split it to uniform capters (which is what most of the authors I look up to seem to do) is there one particular way that's really better?

If I do go uniform chapters what's a good word range per chapter on a story that will be about 15-18 chapters?

Side Note: I already have a WONDERFUL BETA, but I think I'd like this one to go through more than one set of eyes anyone interested?  My spelling tends to slip when I've really gotten into just putting down what's going through my head, and I'm comma happy.   My briticisms while improving are not always great.  I'm also really going to force myself to stay as canon compliant to HBP as the story allows and that's going to be where I need the most help.
