I'll sometimes write dialogues on paper as they come up in my head.
I've heard of some books that have no chapters and some of them are very famous too. Unusual perhaps, but if done correct. Break the rules!
I keep mine between 3000-5000. I think it depends a lot on what, and how you write.
I would think that it's harder to write a short story that's gripping, a story which will stay. Less time to make that happen, but if done right then.
Hi to you and welcome on board!
Welcome! :-)
