I'm reading a James Patterson novel at present - (Big Bad Wolf).
He uses VERY short chapters - usually only 2-3 pages, and sometimes even less - which seems to break all the 'rules' and 'formulas' I've read about chapter length - and yet he's wildly successful.
As a reader - do you LIKE books with this kind of snappy chapters? Prefer them? Do you prefer longer ones? Or does it matter?
As a writer - which do you think is easier to write?
Thanks!:snoopy
