I just have a quick question. I'm basically wondering how long my exposition should take as it seems as though I have a solid 2000 or more words before my MC begins his journey. I'd appreciate anyone's input on this.

Hm. "Interesting."Basically, you need interesting people to do interesting things in interesting settings to keep us interested.
I'm going to post that on my office wall.Basically, you need interesting people to do interesting things in interesting settings to keep us interested.
You could go 25,000 words before your character starts his journey (or more, or less - it doesn't matter). There still needs to be conflict building up to that point, and you should introduce it ASAP.
