The Energy Chef: Comforting Chicken Fricassee
by Herb Mesa in Uncategorized, November 5, 2010Brrr! As we drift towards winter, cooler weather makes me crave homey comfort food. For me, what comes to mind is dish my mother made every winter: chicken fricassee. I love this meal because it's an all-in-one dish that warms you up from the inside out.
My mom used to serve it with white rice, but I cut it out (along with most of the fat in the original recipe) so I can enjoy more of this hearty stew. Now Mom makes this dish Energy Chef-style, too — she's learning, like we all can. Love you, Mom!
Herb's Chicken Fricassee
Serves 8
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds), cut into pieces
1 (16-ounce) can tomato sauce
1 medium onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 bunch cilantro, chopped (stems and leaves)
4 medium red potatoes, diced
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 cup chicken stock (or low sodium chicken broth)
1/4 cup bitter orange juice* (Available at Latin markets)
Salt and pepper to taste
In a large pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and brown chicken on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken set aside. Lower heat to medium-low and saute onions, peppers and cilantro for 3 to 4 minutes. Add potatoes, chicken, bitter orange juice and chicken stock. Bring to boil and reduce heat, then let simmer 20 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through.
*If you can't find bitter orange juice, add 1 tablespoon of lemon or lime juice to the soup along with the orange juice and stock.

A poor defensive display resulted in Cecil Lolo turning the ball into his own net within the opening 11 minutes of the game, while a second was added by Carlinton Nyadombo in the second half.
Nathan Paulse bagged a consolation in the 90th minute, but it was AmaZulu's win for the taking.
Franklin Cale was the first to have a crack at goal with his fourth minute drive from range, but it sailed narrowly over.
AmaZulu were gifted a goal when Lolo spectacularly turned the ball into the back of his own net with a diving header, after Aiden Jenniker failed to clear the ball efficiently.
The Urban Warriors pushed for an equaliser, and on 20 minutes Toriq Losper tested Tapuwa Kapini from 15 yards out, but it was easy pickings for the goalkeeper.
Two minutes later, Ayanda Dlamini's ball went through the legs of Dominic Iaacs following another scrappy moment in the Ajax defence, but Sean Roberts cleaned up.
Ajax were dealt a blow just before the half hour mark when Losper had to be replaced by Keagan Dollie due to injury.
Usuthu had a penalty appeal waved away after Thulani Hlwatshwayo brought down Bongani Ndulula on the edge of the area six minutes before the break.
Ajax fell 2-0 behind afer the restart, after some more scrappy defending from Nkosinathi Mthiyane's corner-kick.
The Urban Warriors' defence was left at sixes and sevens and the ball fell to Nyadombo at the far post to tap in.
Usuthu continued to pile on the pressure and their attacks often left Ajax's backline worse for wear.
Paulse made it 2-1 with a diving header at the stroke of full time, but it was too little too late for the hosts.

Playoff ranks: Divisional Round, beyond
January, 12, 2011
Eric Karabell | ESPN Insider
How about that James Starks!
Beginning in Week 5 (when Starks was close to being activated from the physically unable to perform, or PUP, list), I had my eye on the Green Bay Packers running back. It was obvious then that the Packers needed backfield help; reliable Ryan Grant was lost for the season in Week 1, and Brandon Jackson is more of a helpful third-down type. At least Starks, a sixth-round pick in the 2010 draft who didn't even play his senior year at University of Buffalo because of a shoulder injury, was on our radar at that time. All he was missing was opportunities.

Material: 100% JuteWidth: 59/60"Weight: 11 OzSultana Burlap is a tightly woven, heavyweight burlap with a high thread count.
Fabric Care: Hand wash with cold water and a mild detergent, hang to dry.Red Sultana Burlap is bold and beautiful. The matte finish of the 100% jute material really accentuates the deep red hue, giving it a rich, hearty appearance. If youre familiar with burlap but unsure what "Sultana" means, heres a quick rundown. Burlap comes in different varieties and weights. Sultana is one of the heavier varieties at 11 ounces per yard. It derives that weight from a tighter weave, which also gives it a smoother feel than other burlaps. This homey red is a great choice for décor, from draperies to wall coverings. Its also fun in the craft room. If you can think it, you can burlap it! And because its not as rough as many of its burlap brethren, its the perfectly suited variety when it comes to event planning, whether you need tablecloths, fabric for centerpieces, or chair coverings.
The maximum continuous length for this product is approximately 35 yards, when ordering more than 35 yards please note it may come in more than one piece.
Sample Size: 4" x 4"

"Not Bad"
I got this on sale for around $70. It did take forever to charge but I don't have any issues with keeping my cigars in perfect shape. The seal is perfect and it holds a fare amount of cigars. I could never get 200 cigars in there but all humidors over state their capacity.

"dont waste your $"
Garbage...walnut looks like someone ran a router over it...fake burled walnut....cheap everything.

"Cheaper than it looks, and humidifier always falls"
Looks nice upon opening the box, but then you realize it's another cheaply-made China chitzbox. The wood was so dry, it took over a month to properly "charge" it to an appropriate humid state. Seals okay, and now that it's charged, it's adequate for aging my stogie stash, but the cheap black-plastic humidifier included is not perfectly straight so it never flushly seats with the magnets, falling onto my cigars every few days and splashing a few water drops onto them. (If not that, then the sticky metal bases to which the magnets attach will pull off the wood and it falls again.) Locating humidifiers on lids is a BAD design.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 28, 2014
Contact: Dave Blouin, Sierra Club Mining Committee Chair (608) 220-4040
Patricia Hammel, Madison Action for Mining Alternatives (608) 279-4136
Ashland and Iron Counties vote against Iron Mining
Conservation Congress Results Show Citizens Want Mining Safeguards
Madison: Final results from 71 of 72 Counties participating in the annual statewide Conservation Congress
Spring Hearing held on April 14 demonstrate significant statewide support for mining
safeguards. Overwhelming majorities supported resolutions opposing the proposed taconite mine in the
Penokee Range, for repeal of 2013 Act 1 – the new iron mining law known as the Bad River Watershed
Destruction Act, and to direct the DNR to establish stronger air standards for frac sand mining to protect
public health. Each of these resolutions was approved by nearly or greater than 2 to 1 margins across the
state. The DNR tabulation of results can be using the link "2014 Citizen Resolution Results"
at: http://dnr.wi.gov/About/WCC/springhearing.html.
The resolution opposing development of the proposed massive open pit iron mine in the Penokee Hills was
approved in 28 of 32 Counties where introduced with a total vote count of 1,485 for and 732 against or 67%
approval. The resolution supporting the repeal of 2013 Act 1, the enabling legislation that removed many
of the state's mining protections was approved in 19 of 24 Counties with a vote count of 1,138 in favor and 606 against or 65% approval. The resolution directing the DNR to regulate cancer-causing frac sand mining
dust (silica) to protect public health was approved in 23 of 25 Counties with a vote count of 1,190 in favor
and 533 against or 69% approval. The three resolutions follow below on pages 2-3
Notably, Ashland and Iron County residents – home to the proposed Gogebic Taconite massive open pit
iron mine proposal - strongly supported both the resolution to oppose the proposed mine and the
resolution to repeal 2013 Act 1, the new iron mining law. In addition, 7 of 8 Counties voted by a 73%
majority (502 in favor, 188 against) to direct the DNR to update the silica sand mining study released in
2012. That study did not account for long-term and cumulative impacts from the exploding frac sand
mining industry.
"Just because Ashland County residents want jobs, that doesn't mean we're willing to give up our clean
water, clean air, and quality of life. The state has not properly engaged the residents of Northern
Wisconsin to find out what we want," said Michelle Heglund, who introduced for the resolution in Ashland
"I think of Wisconsin as a conservation state, with a proud history of doing the right things to conserve its
land, its water and its beauty. So when I look for the balance on one side I see an out of state mining
corporation with enough money to write laws in this state, offering a few jobs for 40 years with a ton of
pollution. On the other side I see pristine wild land with clear clean water feeding into the largest and
cleanliest of the Great Lakes. A land that has sustained the Chippewa people for thousands of years. I agree with many in Wisconsin," read Cherie Barnes, a retired truck driver, as she introduced the resolution
in Rock County.
"I thought it was critical for the Conservation Congress and Natural Resources Board to hear the call from
local residents to protect us from the rampant frac-sand mining that has overtaken the region." said Carol
Johnson, who introduced the resolution in St. Croix County, "As the Wisconsin state legislature has
considered removing the ability for local communities to protect their residents, it's critical a statewide
standard is enacted to protect us."
"The people have spoken and the results demonstrate overwhelming opposition to open pit iron mining
and support for public health protections for sand mining. Support for repealing Gogebic Taconite's iron
mining law is strong and growing. The Department of Natural Resources and the Wisconsin State
Legislature should heed these results and work to meet the public's expectation that our natural resources
and public health will be protected" said Dave Blouin, State Mining Chair for the Sierra Club.
Madison Action for Mining Alternatives (MAMA), the Wisconsin Network for Peace and Justice and the
Sierra Club-John Muir Chapter worked together to develop the resolutions for introduction by concerned
residents at the April 14 hearings.
Founded in 1892 by John Muir, the Sierra Club is America's oldest, largest and most influential grassroots environmental organization. The Sierra Club's mission is to explore, enjoy, and protect the wild places of the earth; to practice and promote the responsible use of the earth's ecosystems and resources; to educate and enlist humanity to protect and restore the quality of the natural and human environment; and to use all lawful means to carry out those objectives. The Sierra Club – John Muir Chapter is made up of 15,000 members and supporters working to promote clean energy and protect water resources in Wisconsin.
Madison Action for Mining Alternatives is a grassroots group of citizens that provides support and solidarity to communities fighting to save water, air, ecosystems, and sustainable economies from proposed or existing mining projects in Wisconsin.
RESOLUTION to Oppose the Proposed Open-Pit Iron Mine: Article IX, Section 1 of the Wisconsin State Constitution, also known as the Public Trust Doctrine, states that navigable waters "shall be common highways and forever free," and courts have established that limited encroachments upon these waters may only be permitted if they serve the public interest. Gogebic Taconite seeks to develop an open-pit iron mine in Ashland and Iron Counties covering over 3,000 acres with 900 million tons of wastes and pits up to 1,000 feet deep. This project would have massive air and water impacts on the Bad River Watershed, including over 1,000 acres of on-site wetlands, the high-value wetlands of Bad/Kakagon Sloughs, over 75 miles of designated Outstanding and Exceptional Resource Waters, and the aquifer that supplies well water to homes and businesses in the area. Mine supporters have not accounted for jobs lost due to reduction of forest crop land, impacts to local agriculture, reduction in tourism, or increasing mechanization of the mining industry, and the company has actively sought to avoid paying taxes and surcharges that might benefit local communities. Be it RESOLVED, that the Wisconsin Conservation Congress finds the Gogebic Taconite mining project does not serve the public interest, as required by the Constitution; that the Congress opposes the proposed Gogebic Taconite mine; and that the Congress hereby directs the Department of Natural Resources to deny any permits to Gogebic Taconite related to their proposed iron mine in the Penokee Hills.
RESOLUTION to repeal the Iron Mining Law: 2013 Act 1, written on behalf of Gogebic Taconite, enacted broad changes to state mining laws to enable the largest open pit mine in Wisconsin history in the environmentally and culturally sensitive Bad River Watershed of Lake Superior. The mine would be up to 1000 feet deep and larger than one square mile in area, permanently affecting groundwater, wetlands, lakes and streams, and producing more than 900 million tons of acid-leaching wastes. The Bad River Watershed includes 66 lakes, streams and rivers that are Exceptional and Outstanding Resource Waters. The mine site includes multiple designated trout
streams, and the DNR has identified the Penokee Range as an area of high conservation importance. Downstream are the Kakagon-Bad River Sloughs, a National Natural Landmark and Wetland of International Importance comprising 40% of the coastal wetlands of Lake Superior. The new mining law has caused loss of cooperation between the Wisconsin DNR and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on environmental review, has severely damaged the relationship between the State and Wisconsin's Indian Tribes by impacting treaty protected resources without adequate consultation, and may result in further erosion of cooperation between State, Federal, and Tribal regulators. Be it RESOLVED, that the Conservation Congress supports repeal of 2013 Act 1 because it unnecessarily reduced environmental protections and citizen input related to iron mining, and requests that the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board make a similar finding and work with the Legislature to repeal the law.
RESOLUTION to address air standards for respirable silica dust: Frac sand mining has exploded in Wisconsin over the past few years. Half of Wisconsin has sandstone formations and over 100 silica mining and processing operations are permitted or in stages of permitting. Wisconsin's beautiful sand counties are disappearing. Citizens are concerned about dangerous air pollutants caused by mining, crushing, processing and transport of silica throughout the state in areas of close proximity to heavy industrial operations. Fugitive dust caused by the industry is extensive. Airborne silica dust is carcinogenic. Because silicosis and related diseases take 10-20 years to develop based upon exposure, it is crucial to public health to establish a regulatory standard for respirable crystalline silica dust and require that the industry provide continuous monitoring. Towns, counties, or municipalities lack the capacity to measure and regulate particulates. The DNR lacks an acceptable standard that can be monitored and enforced. BE IT RESOLVED that the Wisconsin Conservation Congress directs the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board to establish a regulatory emission standard for respirable crystalline silica dust of an annual average of less than 3 micrograms per cubic meter; require mandatory monitoring of PM10, PM2.5, and PM4 dust at frac sand sites to ensure compliance with US EPA National Ambient Air Quality Standards and the 3 μg/m3 standard; conduct regular inspection of facilities and locations where fugitive dust is generated; take immediate enforcement action for violations; and work to educate the public about the health dangers inherent in the industry.

Everton FC analysis: Support remains strong for David Moyes
Many players have come and gone in over a decade since Preston's flame-haired coach first strolled into Goodison Park in March 2002 and declared his new employers to be "The People's Club" but he remains the one consistent factor in the upturn in fortunes of a previously moribund footballing Behemoth who had recorded just one top half finish in the Premier League over the previous 10 years.
For the first time so far in the Scot's Everton tenure, he has this season allowed his contract to run down and, given that his current deal expires in the summer, at this point in time it remains uncertain whether he'll still be at the helm at Goodison when the 2013-14 campaign kicks off.
Moyes has quite understandably admitted that he requires reassurances as to the direction the club intends to go in the future before putting pen to paper but it is to be hoped that his tongue was firmly in his cheek in regards to comments made by him over the past 12 months insinuating that given his longevity at the club, Evertonians might want to see a different face in the dugout sometime soon.
The vast majority of Blues remain fully behind the man they know is the best option for their club and given their unyielding support for him, they too should remain his preferred choice.
All this for someone who for all his consistency in the Premier League, is still waiting to win a trophy almost 11 years after his appointment.
Both Moyes and fans alike are desperate for Everton to win the FA Cup this season.
Having had his fingers burned making wholesale changes at Leeds United in the Capital One Cup earlier this season, Moyes, like he'd done at Cheltenham Town in the third round earlier this month, named a full-strength side against Bolton Wanderers.
Surely one piece of domestic silverware per decade is not too much to ask of a club of Everton's size and standing – especially with such a talented manager at the helm?

WAYNESFIELD — Natural gas is coming to Waynesfield.
Waynesfield Village Council members approved an ordinance Monday allowing the mayor to enter an agreement with Fanning/Howey & Associates to move forward with design plans to bring natural gas to the community.
The ordinance did not pass unanimously, as councilor Bill Motter voted against the natural gas initiative. When a resident questioned his vote, Motter sited financial reasons.
"I am for natural gas," Motter said, "if it is affordable."
Natural disasters left approximately 42 million people homeless last year.
This past weekend, local high school seniors had the opportunity to face homelessness themselves, and now understand what it is like to live outside the comfort of their homes.

Several websites list companies that are friendly and not friendly regarding gun rights. Some of the companies have policies against guns on their property, and others are involved in other anti-gun initiatives. Some of the more well known companies in the news are Starbucks (friendly), and Darden restaurants (Olive Garden, Red Lobster, etc) which have been known to be UN-friendly.
NRA-ILA website
NRA-ILA :: National Organizations With Anti-Gun Policies
Next is a website from Virginia that lists several businesses, but some of the policies against guns are not nationwide, but only in certain local franchises there. You have to read the policies carefully and even contact your local businesses to find out more.
Virginia Citizens Defense League, Inc. (VCDL) Fridays
A quick phone call or email would be a good way to tell these businesses what you think about their policies. Where you spend your money would send a big message. I tell them that I don't feel safe in a "gun free" zone. These business owners and managers need to be educated with the truth so they can understand the "gun control" myth.

Connecticut College News
Sailing coach named NEISA Coach of the Year
07/6/2011Sailing coach Jeff Bresnahan, second from left, with members of the 2010-2011 Camels sailing team.
Following one of the best seasons in Camel sailing history, head coed and women's coach Jeff Bresnahan has been honored as the New England Intercollegiate Sailing Associations' (NEISA) Coach of the Year. Bresnahan led the women's team to an exciting second place finish at the Sperry/Top Sider ICSA Women's National Championship in Cascade Locks, Ore. The men's team also competed in the championship, making it the first year for both teams to qualify since 1993. Fran Shields, the Katherine Wenk Christoffers '45 Director of Athletics and Chair of the Physical Education Department at Connecticut College, saluted Bresnahan for his accomplishments at the College. "Jeff puts his heart and soul into this program," Shields said. "This is a great honor for Jeff, our student-athletes and Connecticut College." Peter Miller, a rising senior from Paget, Bermuda, said Bresnahan is deserving of the honor. "The award is a testament to the fantastic season that the women's and coed teams had," Miller said. "Jeff's leadership, player management and coaching were excellent. We're excited that the other teams in NEISA have recognized his herculean efforts." Bresnahan told the Boston Globe the credit should go to his sailors. "I'm deeply honored to have been chosen," Bresnahan told the Globe, "but the credit really belongs to the members of the team. They worked extremely hard and got us to the nationals. My job was easy. They did the sailing and it's through their efforts that I got this award." Maggie Shea, a skipper from Wilmette, Ill., who graduated in May, said Bresnahan is a particularly effective coach because he recognizes and balances the needs of student-athletes. "Over the years, it has become evident to me how much Jeff cares about his sailors in all aspects of our lives," Shea said. "He understands that we came to Connecticut College to gain a well-rounded liberal arts education. Jeff helps his sailors develop life skills that will help us as adults in the real world. He is acutely aware that we are student-athletes." The Camel sailing program has received international acclaim in recent years with several graduates competing in the Olympic games. Meg Gaillard '95 and Carol Cronin '86 competed at the 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens, Greece, and Amanda Clark '05 sailed at the 2008 games in Beijing, China.

Writing a Book? It's All in the Numbers.
Blogger: Michelle Ule
While Janet continues her time away from the office because of her husband's death, I'm filling in for her today.
A friend asked me once how many words I had to write to complete a novel.
My answer: How ever many it takes.
That's not quite true. Numerically analyzing the necessary length of a manuscript falls to genre and style, but good writing involves rhythm. I have four pointers (plus a bonus!) to help you to calculate the best way to figure out your project.
1. Find your genre to calculate your story length.
Various genres have conventions as to length of story. They vary somewhat from house to house and among subgenres, but generally speaking you would expect a women's fiction to be about 85,000 words, a light romance should clock in around 50,000-60,00 and a historical novel usually touches 100,000. A larger list (from 2010) can be found here.
Science fiction and fantasy can be anyone's guess; they tend to be longer since they depict new worlds. The same is true of historical fiction because the author has to describe a time and place most of us no longer know.
Nonfiction self-help or Christian living generally are about 40,000-50,000 words long.
Speaking from the agenting end, we can usually tell a beginning novelist when their project's word count is outside conventional numbers. Sure, J.K. Rowling did it with her later Harry Potter books, but she stayed within the norm on the first several books she wrote.
You can do anything you want with subsequent books, if you sell a gazillion copies of the first book or two.
2. Compute the length of your average chapter.
My chapters generally run 1,500-2,000 words. At 250 words per page (using Times Roman 12 and one-inch margins), that means they're usually six to eight pages long. Sometimes, however, I incorporate more than one scene in a chapter and thus the number may double. (I use three asterisks to divide the chapter into two scenes: ***. I try to make each scene the same length.)
For nonfiction, shorter chapters generally work better. Readers like to "take a break" by moving onto the next chapter. Ten pages per chapter is the norm. You better have some pretty compelling reason to make a chapter 15-20 pages in length.
Obviously, the length of a chapter depends on the type of manuscript you're writing, the amount of description you use, and how you're telling your story or making your point. Your personal writing style and voice will dictate that–not me.
Generally speaking, you should aim to have all your chapters approximately the same length, give or take a page or two. Your reader expects a rhythm in a book and that includes the length of the chapter, as well as the frequency of switching between points of view for fiction.
If in writing your manuscript it feels like it should be two long chapters and then a one-pager, that's fine as long as you keep up that pattern throughout the manuscript. If you can't keep it up, rework the chapters.
3. Keep an eye on what your paragraphs look like.
When I open a book I'm reading for fun, but the first page is all one paragraph, I close it. Maybe it's my age or my experience, perhaps my eyes, but I don't want to read such a dense manuscript. I can glance at the page, not even take in the words, and that will tell me if I want to continue.
Obviously, plenty of people think and read more deeply than I do, but for the average reader, who spends a lot of time reading short spurts of copy on the Internet, lengthy paragraphs will be too daunting to be comfortable.
If your book isn't "easy" to read, the leisure reader won't stay with it.
I personally like dialogue, even in nonfiction as stories are added to illustrate a point. So if I glance at a page and don't see any dialogue, you're going to have to really wow me with exquisite writing.
A better approach would be to balance between the two–but you already know that.
Some people prefer prose and aren't looking for dialogue–match your writing to your genre. Historical fiction, perhaps, can get away with denser paragraphs because they're describing things people need to picture. Dialogue has a specific place in nonfiction; so readers look at a page with a different mindset than a novel reader.
Light romance, though, needs quick and flippy paragraphs.
4. Check the rhythm and flow of your sentences.
The length of sentence determines the speed at which the reader reads.
Short sentences go quickly.
Long, convoluted sentences slow down the reader as he takes time to embrace and picture every idea you include.
Depending on the genre, you need to match your sentences to the style. Quick, short sentences can build tension. Long, lugubrious sentences can allow the reader to cozy into their chair and relax.
5. Bonus: Can these types of number predict a best-seller?
Some people believe a best-seller can be predicted by a numerical analysis of the project using a complex algorithm focusing on word complexity and sentence length. Try it. You'd be surprised at what you'll find here.
Long or short? Complex or simple? What have you observed about your rhythm and writing style?

Michelle, I appreciate your post. I haven't thought a ton about the numbers end of writing. I know enough to stay within house guidelines. You've answered some of my questions keeping scene lengths the same and chapters about the same length-wise. I've been wondering about that.
I'm finding as I revise my ms, that I probably need to even out some of my scenes. My goal is to try to stay pretty close to a specific word count for each scene, but I'm finding it hard to chop parts of some scenes to bring them into submission.
I'm also trying to make sure there's good white space on each page, including good dialog to move the story forward. Rachel Hauck has said "tell the story between the quotes," and I'm trying to do that. This gives a good balance between white space and letter-dense paragraphs. At least that's my goal. You've given me something to ponder today. Thanks.
Again, Jeanne, the length of chapters needs to be approximately the same not precisely.
I also find when putting together my work, that the middle chapter often has a major event which alters the story and often is a little longer.
That pacing gives rhythm to the project–provides a change of pace that marks the movement to the end. I don't plan it that way, it just happens in the course of the story telling.
Use tempo changes like that to effect the story as a whole.
It's like using four long paragraphs of description and then a new one five words long.
The difference makes those words/images "pop" out for maximum effect.
Happy writing!
Thanks for sharing these thoughts and tips.
Michelle, thank you for this great information.
I got a little worried when you mentioned that your chapters are eight pages long. Mine are 15-16, but then you noted the importance of consistency and rhythm. That, I can say, is happening. I hadn't planned on my chapters being about 15 pages long. The chapters are based on plotting: Chapter One-intro and inciting force, Chapter Two-first major complication, Chapter Three-next major complication / plot twist, etc. It seemed to be a happenstance that they are about the same page length, but your post has reassured me that maybe I'm on the right track.
In regards to dialogue and narration, as a writer and a reader I, like you, feel there should be a balance. And a page-long paragraph! As a reader, I don't want to read it. As a writer, it's a sign that I need to revise and edit (and yes, I have written page-long paragraphs, but they have never remained that long).
Balance and varied are important with sentence length too, I think. As a reader, I would to see both, not one or the other.
Thank you for the links. They are both helpful. I'm writing YA fantasy and I keep reading that word counts for fantasy should be high because of world building. I think that my novel will end up being about 65,000 words. I've been afraid that it would be rejected as too short, but I don't want to pad it just to meet a word count. Your post helps me to feel confident that what I need to do is to focus on writing an excellent story and let the word count worry about itself.
I'm still praying for Janet and for all of you at Books and Such. Blessings.
Great post! Since I've just finished plotting a new story and am beginning to flesh it out, this is timely info for me. Thank you.
Hi Michelle. Insightful post as usual. Thank you.
I am currently struggling with the word count issue. I have a completed my first fiction historical fiction manuscript, which ended up with 112,500 words. I have heard that for debut authors your manuscript needs to be less than 100,000 or publishers will not be interested.
I have done two edits so far, which have shaved it down from 117,000 to its current count. I am doing another edit now, so perhaps I can slim it down a couple thousand words. I would appreciate hearing your thoughts. Should I buckle down and get it under 100,000 words? What do you think? I am scared that I may be forced to downsize something that shouldn't be cut.
Also with consistency in chapter size, I have a unique situation with my novel. It moves back and forth from the present day to the past. The present day chapters tend to be shorter than the past ones, but the chapter lengths vary throughout both.
I have already had good feedback from nearly 10 readers that the chapters all seem to lead well into the next. Do you think it would be worth the risk to keep them as is or make myself go back and add in information just to make them longer?
It's confusing. I don't want to be a rule breaker, but it's hard to discern between a writer's personal style and when they break the rules. Sorry to throw all of these concerns out here, Michelle. I appreciate any advice you can give. Thanks and have a great day!
Sorry for the typos! I submitted before I was ready…oops!
Letting go of words and parting with parts of your story, feels kind of like I'm abandoning part of myself:) ~So hard!
Morgan, the closer you get to 100K, the better your chances of finding a publisher, especially if you are a debut novelist.
This is my non-agent, non-editor opinion.
If you examine my post from last week, the value of a word census, you might find a ways to hone more excessive words from your manuscript.
OTOH, you might examine the manuscript to see if you can spilt it into two books– then, of course, you could expand some of the subplots.
Thanks so much, Michelle! I will work hard to cut it down to under 100,000! Have a nice week!
Do you think the fast past of our society with twitter, short blogs, facebook posts and just general immediacy to get to what we want, make readers more impatient?
On the computer its so easy to just click to the next thing if you lose interest. Is it more difficult for writers to keep the attention of readers if their story is not concise and quick-paced? I have found myself rewriting and rewriting, because I worry if its engaging enough of that fast-paced motion with a quiet, more inspirational voice.
Fantastic observations, Michelle.
I've witnessed a change in my writing style over the past year. My sentences and paragraphs have shortened. I think of C.S. Lewis's writing advice: "Don't use words too big for the subject. Don't say infinitely when you mean very; otherwise you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite."
Great and timely post as always. I did an edit after I read your post last week on words like "that" – I cut out 463 'thats!' Couldn't believe it…and now reading my WIP again, I'm finding other words like 'suddenly' and 'just' and 'then' – argh!
Thanks again,
Becky -
This is interesting! I love formulas and guidelines in writing because it gives me a foundation. As far as length, I try to stick to 10-12 pages per chapter, with around two scenes. It usually gives me around the same ending word count for my manuscript and therefore lets me know how many words I need to write a day to get a project done in a certain amount of time. Great point about lengthy or short paragraphs depending on genre. I like to see a good amount of white space per page, especially if I'm reading a light romance.
I started my non-fiction book with the intention of keep chapters short, but they have blown out some what. This is a great guide, thank you. I shall now take a look at breaking the content up some more. My 12 Chapters need to be 24.
Thanks again, Sally
I went at my WIP in early summer with a knife and cut well over 16,000 words. I was amazed how well things tightened up. I worked so hard, I was disappointed when the bathroom scale didn't show my efforts.
This is great information and most helpful.
(In my nonfiction WIP I open each chapter with dialogue. Do I get bonus points?)
Great article. I was told at one of my first conferences to watch the numbers as well as white space on a page. The editor's comment was that readers are busy and solid print pages may turn away a reader. You just emphasized what the editor said. -
Someone finally screwed my lightbulb all the way in!
Being a returning writer after several years, and having been writing in basically one genre for quite a while, I am still a bit of an isolationist while re-honing and reacquainting myself with today's big picture. So much to relearn about! These were just the kind of stats I needed, all in one place. (Like a kick in the head!) Suddenly my dark little one-track cramped cubby turned into a spacious ballroom, lined with doors of every shape and size. I had forgotten that I have easily accessible and fabulous neighbors! Thanks for turning on the chandelier! -
This was such a great read! As you can tell, I really enjoyed reading this article. Since I started writing my novel, I have really taken into consideration the view of my future readers. Anything I write is written with my placing myself as the reader itself. A book that is easy on the eyes will have more appeal for the general audience. Even in books, one must make sure everything is placed in a strategic manner.
Thanks so much for this post, Michelle. Do you have any number guidelines for narrative nonfiction (a biography)? What would you say the word/chapter length should be for a biography? Also, should manuscripts/proposal chapters be double-spaced? What do you recommend? Thanks for the helpful advice!

Magnussen: Adversity only makes me hungrier to win
McLaren driver Kevin Magnussen has said that he is hungrier than ever to return to the front of the field after three disappointing races for the team.
The Danish youngster made an incredible start to his Formula 1 career, finishing second on debut at the Australian Grand Prix.
However, since then, the McLaren MP4-29 has struggled in cooler conditions, resulting in a yield of just ten points between Magnussen and teammate Jenson Button. None of these points have come in the last two races, and in China both drivers endured anonymous races to finish 11th and 13th.
Magnussen took to Twitter to tell his fans that he is more determined than ever.
"Last few races have been very difficult for us," he said. "But it's time like these that make you tough. And it's times like these that make you even more hungry for the win."
The Dane was drafted in as a shock replacement for Sergio Perez, who was dropped by the team after just one lacklustre season. The defending Formula Renault 3.5 champion has made no secret of his gratitude to the team, and he has vowed to repay them with good results.
"I am blessed to be with Mclaren, and we are going to fight back and be even stronger when we get there. Thank you for all your support guys!"
The team will look to bounce back at the Spanish Grand Prix in 20 days' time where warmer conditions and an upgrade package should aid the pace of the car.

Right out of the box
A eucalyptus didgeridoo needs to acclimate a bit to its new environment before being played over long peridos of time. So when your new didgeridoo arrives, take your time getting to know it, and give the instrument a chance to adjust to the local humidity, or lack thereof, in its new home.For the first 3 days after receiving your new didgeridoo try to limit your playing to about 20 minutes at a time, allowing the inside of the bore to dry before going at it again. You can play your new didgeridoo several times in a single day, no dramas, but keep each session to 20 minutes or less.
As a wooden musical instrument a didgeridoo is sensitive to thermic shock, so avoid extremes like long periods of exposure to direct sunlight. Keep the instrument insulated while making transitions from cold, wet weather to a dry, warm house. It's natural wood, so common sense goes a long way in protecting it from stress. When you travel with your didgeridoo, be sure to keep it insulated in a carry bag or wrap it up in a beach towel or blanket.
Repairing leaks or cracks
Playing a didgeridoo causes moisture from your breath to dampen the inside of the bore. If there is any tension in the wood along the internal neck of the instrument, this extra moisture may cause a fracture and allow air to escape. While one or two hairline fractures may occur from time to time in eucalyptus didgeridoos, they will sometimes close up tight on their own in a few days. If you have a permanent fracture that you feel is leaking air there are options for sealing the wood:

Weather Underground Forecast for Tuesday, January 15, 2013.
Active weather will continue in the Southeast, while snow showers move into the Northern Rockies and Northern Plains on Tuesday. A stubborn cold front will remain situated over the Southeast on Tuesday and continue pulling moisture and energy in from the Gulf of Mexico. This will continue triggering moderate to heavy rain showers from the Lower Mississippi River Valley through the Carolinas. Expect rainfall totals to range from 1 to 2 inches in most areas along and ahead of the cold front, while cooler temperatures behind the front will allow for freezing rain and snow showers to persist for the Tennessee Valley. Flood warnings and advisories will remain in effect for the region as the Lower Mississippi River Valley and the Tennessee Vally have seen heavy rain for nearly a week now. Meanwhile, freezing rain warnings will remain in effect for parts of the Tennessee Valley through Tuesday morning. Expect dangerous roads and travel conditions as up to a quarter of an inch ice accumulation is possible.
In the North, a low pressure system drops into the Northern Rockies from western Canada. This will kick up a few snow showers over Montana and Wyoming, moving into the Dakotas late on Tuesday. High wind advisories have been issued for the Northern Rockies as sustained winds from 25 to 40 mph are likely, with gusts up to 70 mph at highest mountain peaks. Snowfall accumulation will range from 2 to 4 inches for these areas on Tuesday.
Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Monday have ranged from a morning low of -36 degrees at Craig, Colo. to a high of 84 degrees at Brunswick, Ga.

NOPD Sgt. Reassigned After Remark About Obama
Police say they have reassigned a sergeant accused of making an offensive remark about President Barack Obama ahead of his Friday visit to New Orleans.
Police say in a news release that Sgt. Chris Landry was reassigned after making the comment about Obama during a training event Thursday. Police would not discuss details of the incident or whether Landry had been originally assigned to a role during Obama's visit.
In a statement, chief Ronal Serpas says Landry was reassigned because the police training program was designed to improve officers' interaction with the public. The department would not provide details of his reassignment.
The department and the Fraternal Order of Police, which represents officers, are investigating.

Chris Hatherall - Birthday boy Lampard bored to tears
Published: 22 Jun 2010 - 08:30:50
I loved Frank Lampard's description of a typical boring day for England players on World Cup duty.
He was deadly serious as he revealed what a dull birthday he'd had and how tough it is being holed up in a five-star hotel in north-west South Africa.
I can empathise a little because as a football journalist all I ever hear from mates is what a cushy job I have and how all I do is get paid to chill around watching matches.
What they don't see, of course, is the high levels of stress, the hours of waiting and waiting - only to be told players don't want to speak to you - and days on end working until 3am in a hotel room before getting up four hours later to drive to another city and another media centre.
But even bearing all that in mind I couldn't help but think Frank's birthday wasn't all that bad. It basically went like this:
Wake up 8am, mooch down to breakfast with my mates. A quick game of five-a-side and a stretch before lunch - and a birthday cake from the hotel staff. Just time for a nice massage before a game of golf in the afternoon, a specially-prepared dinner and an evening watching the World Cup on TV. Rang home to get birthday wishes from the family and a quick chat on MSN - followed by an early night and a good sleep before playing for my country in the World Cup.
Tough life, Lamps! If they put that in the brochure I think a few of us would snap it up…
Let's just hope the holiday lasts a bit longer.

That's been the question, I have been struggling with, lately.
Every time, I hear the Indian politicians make those lofty speeches, my thoughts have always ranged from the most violent one – "These politicians should be all shot to death and hanged publicly", to the most cynical one – "Yeh India hai, sab kuch chaltha hai",(This is India, just ignore it !)
Yes, I do wish, all the time, I can just go and shoot them all…!! But my obligations, my family and above all, my lack of guts will never allow me to do this and these thoughts would just be a figment of my imaginations.
And the question keeps asking me the same thing .. A slap or a fast ? I have too many excuses, that stops me from doing the slap …
So, here I am .. 36 hours, since I last ate or drank anything. First time in my life, I have survived on just my saliva.
The last morsel of food or a drop of liquid was on Monday around 8PM .. and its now about 8AM Wednesday morning and I am staring at this bowl of cornflakes and milk.!! To eat or not to eat ? that is the dilemma .. (to misquote Shakespeare )
A 40 year old Engineer, weighing 100+ kilograms, depriving himself the one thing, he loves the most — FOOD !! My wife is now fostering the hopes of regaining her rightful place.
Having lived in the US for so long, I have been fortunate enough to experience various world cuisines. Most people eat to live, while the rest like me, until now, had always believed that I was born only to eat !! The thought of fasting intentionally for a cause, had never ever occured to me.
The most, I have ever done, for a cause or for a poor man, is to donate money etc. (Apart from doing a "LIKE" or "SHARE" in Facebook)
So why did I chose fasting and nothing else ?
The answer lies in that feeling of helplessness, that once drove me out of a corrupt & hopeless system, in search of a better future.
The answer also lies in those dreams of various kinds of violent acts, I wish to do against these corrupt politicians, but cannot, for all the above mentioned reasons.
And then I came across, a seemingly quixotic idea, on August 16th 2011 by Shri Anna Hazare ! Something, that I, initially viewed with lot of skepticism and ridicule !!
How can this even work ? What can one achieve, by going on suicide mission of fast unto death? so on and so forth ..
As the days passed .. By the 5th day of his 14 day fast, this Fast unto Death, by a 75 year old man, hit me much harder than that slap on Mr. Pawar's cheeks !! Every subsequent day, thereafter, the impact of this fast was harder than before.
As events unfolded, I learnt about various individuals who joined Anna Hazare and fasted with him. These were people, who could very well afford two square meals and probably have never missed a meal in their life, due to poverty.
But two individuals, made the greatest impact on me. Two individuals, whom I have never met in real life, combined can represent myself !
A Singapore Based IIM-Culcutta Executive, with two young kids (Mr. Rajen Makhijani) who takes leave from work, goes to India and sits on a 14 day fast in Ramlila Ground. This person recently announced on Facebook, that he is going again to Bombay on December 27th from Singapore
This person is going to leave his wife and two young kids to fight against corruption.
A 3rd year computer science student from IIT Kharagpur (Ritesh Singh) goes on 14 day fast and gets admitted to ICU
A slap can gain a week or two of TRP time. A fast gains a lasting impression ! One never forgets the person or the cause for which he fasted … !
Violence, always is a highly attractive option, but most times impractical. More importantly, it has a limited impact and limited TRP.
But if you are ready to die for something, that you truly believe in, its impact on people's conscience is just too high..
Fasting is the one last desperate option of that helpless man can do, in that final hope to convince the masses to join him, in the fight.
For people like me, who are well ensconced in their luxurious life or an assured career, we do not need to undertake this suffering unto us.
But most of us, can never forget those hard struggling days, those bribes that needed to be paid (either by me or my parents), those compromises that had to be done …
The least, I can do is fast, sitting at home and express solidarity for all those people, like me out there.
I cannot go to India and support that one man, who is on a fast unto death. That one man, who is fighting for all those people still stuck in that putrid corrupt system.
I don't know, whether fasting can win this battle. But this is the only non-violent method that I know of today, that has made any real difference. But if this fails, I dread those thoughts of violence and those fears of a Bhagat Singh or Harvinder singh taking over from the Anna's and Gandhi's !!

How to prepare your walls for decorating
Walls almost always need some surface preparation before you can start painting. Even brand-new plaster needs sealing. You should fill any cracks and holes and make sure all surfaces are clean, smooth and dry. You can paint over emulsion-painted surfaces that are in good condition, but make certain you strip back or sand off any peeling paint.
Buying guides
Primers buying guide
If you're painting on bare wood, plaster or metal surfaces, you'll get a better result if you use a primer first. It provides a surface which the paint can bond to and stops the paint being absorbed. Find out more what you need and for what surface.

Delete location data from your previous tweets
Feel like you need a little more privacy when it comes to your social media? Here's a quick tip to remove one piece of data that might be telling your followers a bit too much about you.
Sometimes your social media accounts can be useful tools to stay in touch with your friends, family, or even customers. When it comes to Twitter, many of the third-party apps may have your location setting enabled by default. Additionally, it's very easy to accidentally tap the button to add your location when you're working on a smaller mobile screen. So how can you fix that and regain some of your privacy?
Instead of deleting all of your tweets, you can strip the location information from them using a tool provided by Twitter on their Web site. Here's how to do it:
Step 1: Log in to your Twitter account through a Web browser on a computer.
Step 2: Click on the user menu near the top right-hand corner of the Twitter Web site and choose Settings.
Step 3: Scroll down to Tweet location in the new area that loads and click the button labeled Delete all location information.
You should see a pop-up like this asking you to confirm the deletions, like this:
And then, you'll see this message appear on the page:
Now your location data will be gone from all of your previous tweets. And if you ever need the tool again, you can use it as many times as necessary in the future.

White Girls Set Back Twerking At Least 40 Years
I don't even know what's going on here. What is that move where they look like are trying to coax a shit out of their ass? Is that supposed to be hot? Very confusing. And yes if they were 18 I'd throw in a gratuitous "I'd still throw it them, but wouldn't be happy about it" line, but since they're not I can't. Sucks. That's kind of a go to line of mine in situations like these.

A family member requested I write about the time I "hypnotized" 52 chickens for a $25 bet with five of my friends. Even though these were close friends, they did not know that I had a master's degree in the social life of chickens.
