WorldSmasher Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I'm writing a few stories. I'm done proof-reading the first half of one of those stories. The question I have is this. How do I avoid the "Wall of Text" issue. The first half of the one I finished proof reading is just over 55 single sided pages long (32218 words long), and when I'm done with the second half of the story, it'll probably total over a hundred pages (single sided pages). I used indented paragraphs and broke up the scenes with section headers, to show that the location has changed, or that it's a new day, but when I paste it, it's still gonna be a real long post. Is that O.K., or should I do more to break it up? I don't want someone to click my story and say, "Wow! It's so long!" and then close it before reading it. Is there a way to mitigate such an issue? Or is that not really a problem, because I already used paragraphs and section headers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musevisa Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Post them in "episodes". One every day so that the "wall of text" issue goes away. If the story is good, people will come back every day to read the next pages(at least i would) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
