Great Word Count Overview by Genre

(1/4) > >>

eecoburn:
Our friend Literaticat has posted a really helpful overview of typical word counts by genre over at her blog:

Seems especially helpful for those Blueboarders who are just beginning this journey, and trying to figure out where or how well their story fits into the kidlit categories.

Thank you for the link, really informative :)

This is great, eecoburn. Thanks for linking to it. Word counts seem to be the one consideration many noobs forget (often erring by writing 100K++ novels). Yikes. I love how she broke down MG and YA to realistic vs fantasy and also provides ranges and sweet spots.

Yep, I've seen that, and it's a good resource.
