I'm writing YA Epic fantasy.
I'm aiming for 100 000 words, and hope that's the norm. I've done some research but not found anything conclusive so I've planned it to be 100k.
Has an agent/editor told you to cut down due to too many words? If so, what parts did you remove?
If this were to happen to me, I'd be really sad because I don't like deleting anything I've written. I could remove some adverbs and adjectives, I suppose, but doing that to the entire WIP could take weeks. I haven't even considered the possibility of the removal of entire scenes, though that may be easier to do once I finish the WIP.
I'm truly planning way ahead, but there are no cons with that.
