Novel Size

Many people are curious when it comes to how long a typical novel is. It used to be that we judged this by page count because books were physical and had pages. Mass market paperbacks tend to have 250-500 pages depending on formatting. But how does this translate to the new digital way of measuring?

I've used OCR technology to discover the average adult novel will have 80,000 - 140,000 words. 80,000 will be the low average for short novels typically 200-300 pages. 140,000 will be the high average for thick novels typically 400-500 pages.

These numbers are by no means a strict rule. Just because a work is 79,000 words long does not mean it is disqualified as being a novel.

I thought I'd share this info for those who were curious.

BlackWater out!

Welcome! I'm commonly known as...


I'm an author, artist, and plushie-maker. I'm many other things too. I always work hard to make sure my work is the best it can be, which is probably why I don't shoot off stories from the hip. As the old saying goes, you can't rush art. I may not be perfect, but I try to improve over time. Thanks for reading...

Now go enjoy some of my highly-rated work!

Yeah, kinda figured ya wouldn't get it. More common to hear it in the bayou, down 'round Red Stick. Stayed there for a while. Learned to make some mean gumbo, speak a little creole, and do a little hoo-doo, too. Heh. Know my fair share of magic, comes from livin' in the mountains.

Help keep our wonderful changeling alive and well. Queen Chrysalis is an incredible individual and deserves more than life imprisonment in dark fics. Show her the magic of friendship and revel in the Changeling Cuddle Cuteness™ that is a happily redeemed Chrysalis.

The Sunlight pairing has a special place in my heart. I love Sunset to pieces and her relationship with Twilight is adorable. In this series, marriage happens. No serious relationship should be left hanging, right? ; )
