In this episode of Letters and Numbers, we answer one of the most commonly-asked questions from first-time authors: how long should each chapter be?
Taking a look at the bestselling books of the last couple of years, we graph the numbers to come up with a suggested range of words - and explain why there is no "magic number". Listen on to discover who writes long chapters - who writes short ones - and most importantly, why?
Join author, linguist, and mathematician-in-the-making Sarah on an exploration of the world through the lens of letters and numbers!
