How Long Should Your Story Be?
While I am updating our Writer’s Resources Word Glossary on our Member’s Only website (only available to our members.) I came across the definition for “Word Count”. Looking on the internet for the typical word count for books by genre is helpful to know when writing your story. These are considered averages and if you want to know how many pages these word counts will produce for paperbacks I always rely on the Kindle Publishing Cpver Calculator: https://kdp.amazon.com/cover-calculator
