How long does a chapter need to be when writing a book?
Q. Hi, I am currently working on a young adult novel at the moment. Each of my chapters are about 2,000 words long. Is that too short for a chapter? Some are more but the most my chapters have are about 7 microsoft word pages long. Is this enough? Thanks x But does a book not have to be a certain word count before a publisher will look at it?

A. At the risk of turning this place into an echo chamber, a chapter should be as long or as short as necessary to contain whatever happens in it. If they all come out at about the same length, that's fine, but don't feel that you have to force a chapter to be the same length as the rest. Most authors think in terms of word count, not page count, because there are too many variables that affect (not effect ;-) the number of words on a page when something is printed as a book. 2,000 words is a good sort of length for a chapter in a young adult novel. The book I'm currently editing is 119,000 words, with 46 chapters, so the average chapter length is about 2,600 words. There's quite a lot of variation in length. The shortest one is around 1,400 [cont.]
