Open letter to Authors Regarding Page Counts
Hi there,
I just need to get this out there because I am a bit heated.
When you publish an e-book and there is a page number listed, please - please- consider your actual word count before listing the page count.
I am very disappointed to learn that 7 books I just purchased at $3.99 were listed as being anywhere from 265 and 302 pages are actually averaging 60,000 words.
If I had know they were as short as they were, I would have waited until the author compiled the books into the inevitable anthology they would become. Instead I purchased them on the basis that they were longer, and therefore would be more likely to be standalones in a series and not serials.
Thanks!

Reason: spelling
