I think overall, however, this situation should be avoided and a full, chunky novel published ASAP. After leafing through some of Diana Gabaldon's time travelling romance novels in the bookstore and seeing how big they are (one of them is over 1,500 pages in paperback), the whinging publishers' excuses about books being too thick to be fitted into one volume doesn't really wash.
.....I have all Gabaldon's books and some of them are enormous. Publishers are moaning because they want to charge us idiots for two books

Maybe he should split it in half. Make it a kind of split-by-characters.

I guess. It just sort of reminds me of the people who would post Onion stories back at wotmania.

Perhaps someone could create a single sticky thread for all pre-Dance completion news. *NM*

I didn't think it was generally known that he had pushed back an Arya chapter. I didn't know anyway.

Agreed, I could go for a split in publication as long as the two parts came out a few months apart.
