Sounds Like Weird
03 September 2004
I was looking over my msses last night, trying to get a grip on whether I was primarily a fantasy writer or an SF writer.
It turns out that I’ve got almost twice as many science fiction manuscripts as fantasy ones, but the total word count for them is 1/3 of the word count for the fantasy pieces. So, not surprisingly, my fantasy is longer, on average. Why isn’t this news?
