I will when we get it pared down to what the options are. I am still not personally clear on what people are wanting to do with it outside of raising the cap in some way. We've had more weigh in on the chapter issue. I've seen a couple of suggestions, but honestly, I didn't clearly understand how exactly they wanted it done. So I think we need some more discussion on it before putting it to a vote.
My proposal was to leave the N & N category at three, EXCEPT THAT if an author wants, he or she can go to four or five, providing all are part of the same novel and each chapter includes at least 7,500 words. To use Red's example:
My Long Story (8750 words)
Her Name Was His (11500 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (40000 words)
Or, to use the same examples, it could be:
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (13,334 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (13,333 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (13333 words)
Or:
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (10,000 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (10,000 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (10,000 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (10,000 words)
Or, more likely, it could be:
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (8,000 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (8,000 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (8,000 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (8,000 words)
Milo Marked My Christmas Tree (8,000 words)
