@JessSDFisher Just watched the stream! Thanks so much for choosing Blood War.
I’m cracking up at your attempts to pronounce the words (Baubesti, Ingeri, Dhampyri, etc). You did a lot better than most people, though, so props for that. I know they can be difficult, which is why there’s a pronunciation guide at the end of the book. Oh, and shoutout to your friend for explaining what a duvet is! Lol.
Chapter length (aka the oldest debate on Wattpad)! Haha, it’s either a science or an unsolvable mystery. I hold the opinion that the scene should determine its own length, but since the Wattpad admins encourage writers to have shorter chapters, I try to adjust accordingly. That doesn’t always work, though. Some of my current chapters are three times as long as the beginning ones. Lol. I’ve written 36 chapters, and the total word count is about 70K. And the book isn’t even halfway finished. Yikes, it’s gonna be a long one.
Happy that it was interesting, and nice job finding a selection of books without romance or smut in the first chapters. That’s basically a Wattpad miracle.
