Story length

Quite a few comments over at Literotica on chapter 4 of Alex in Pornoland saying the chapter's too short.

I did some number crunching on all the stories published on the same day Alex... went live and found that it's a couple of hundred shy of the median length - - it's around 3,500 words long, the median's 4,000 or so.

So here's my promise to the readers - - everything I write from Alex... chapter 5 onwards will be at least 4,000 words long.

This doesn't include the already submitted chapter 12 of Trophy Wives (which is 4,400 words anyway) nor the first chapter of my new story now called The Wilbraham Fungus (which is 4,200 words) nor the final chapter of Three Horny Moms (which comes in at 3,000) as they're already written.

Chapter 5 of Alex... and everything after that will be at least 4,000 words. Take it or leave it.

  1. Honestly, Sir Sinn, you're a very prolific writer. Some writers on Literotica don't post for months or years at a time, but then pop up with something novel-length. You usually post a few chapters a month on your different tales.

    I don't mind if each individual posting is 3-4k words. The overall output is high, and your fans don't need to wonder for months at a time whether you've quit writing at all.

    Thanks for all the fine tales.

  2. Thanks for letting me know - - it's nice to know not everyone's screaming for a 50,000 word chapter every week!
