This was a fine read. The chapters were almost shockingly short to me, but I
would not call this bad, just different. Possibly even better, reading on my
Kindle or iPad, at work and on the go. Heavily weighted towards dialogue, but in
a quick paced and vibrant way, rather than being plodding or tedious. The
characters drew me in, to the point where I felt the triumphs and losses of the
protagonist. I recommend this as a fun, fast read, and a good value.
The chapters are between 500 and 600 words. I wrote it that way so I could complete one chapter each day. (You know . . . daily word count.)
Dialogue, as you may have read in How to Write Your Novel in Nine Weeks, is what I love. Putting two characters together and just listening to them talk is a delight. And, often, surprising.
Try it.
Just keep writing.
