I am cutting it close with the word count on my Sunset Shipping contest entry - I finally uploaded the first four chapters to Fimfiction, and they come out at 8,331 words! That leaves a mere 1,669 words left for the final (and incredibly necessary!) part if I don't wanna go over the word count.
This is gonna be tricky. I expect some painful trimming down in my future
If it makes you feel better, I wound up cutting a whole chapter that wasn't vital to my entry. 10k sounds like a lot till you write with a purpose.

Kind of. I'm glad others had the same problem, even if i don't think I have any non-vital chapters. I do have some ideas of what to cut, but still...
10k is definitely not as much as I thought it would be.

Indeed. I still plan to write and post the 'Flutterbat' chapter, but on it's own with some revisions.
