Just a quick question to regular posters,
I have just completed an Xfic, and would like to post
it to get some feedback. The story is in 9 parts,
with some parts up to 2000 words. Is 2000 words acceptible
for a posting length, or should I break the longer parts into
smaller lengths for posting?

Please reply via email if possible, as my reader is a tad dodgy.

Ta,
Sean.

Sean,

Hmm, that's a good question, and to tell you the truth, I'm not
sure. We don't really go by word count here on the newsgroup, but
more by number of lines or file size. If you keep it under about 500
lines or 30K, you'll be okay. I hope that helps!
