This question is mostly for the agents here but others can chime in with their theories too: do most agents prefer longer or shorter chapters in partials submitted to them? From what I've read about it, lots of people seem to like shorter chapters better in general, but would longer chapters have an advantage from giving an agent a chance to read and evaluate *more* of a work? I'm asking this because I write long chapters, but have been considering splitting them up in shorter ones before doing the query thing again; do longer chapters have any benefits worth keeping?
