The scattered thoughts of short story writer Sandra Seamans
Thanks, Sandra! (20 publishers seem to have 20 different definitions of what "novel length" is.)
Yes, they're all different but I read recently (can't remember where) that for a first novel they don't want anything longer than 80,000 words. Seems like a good place to start if you're a first timer.
