Would it be considered odd if my MC has one very long and event filled day (basically the first 8 chapters)? I didn't intend to write it as such, but the supporting cast didn't want to let him go without the proper send-off yada yada yada.
Should I spread it out some more, perhaps over a few days? The timeline fits, and I've had real life days that were busier. The flip side will be that the next part involves a rather boring move to a new post, and several weeks might be covered in one or two chapters.
I guess my real question is "How much should I allow to be crammed into one day?". Personally, I think it works. My real concern is that I just don't want to have the pace moving so fast, then slack off.
