Long story or break it down into parts
Her Royal Spriteness
Keep it as one. Multi-part stories on lush usually get fewer readers with each chapter and 6k+ is not THAT many words.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Don't break down anything that can be presented as a single submission. ( 10 k words or less ) Even stories in wildly popular categories take a nosedive in views when they're spread across multiple submissions.

Okay, I posted chap 1(2k) have submitted #2(4k) have about 17k after that so that should be a 10k and a 7k submission? That probably explains the no votes or comments as well.

Once you're breaking something down, I don't think how much you break it down matters all that much. More important is probably breaking it down in logical places that make the readership it will draw hungry for the next chapter.
Novels is probably a slow category. I haven't posted in the category or looked at the numbers much here, but it's a low-readership category pretty much everywhere else, so I'd assume that's especially true here, where very short works rule the roost.

I post my stories in installments where there is a natural break or 'cliffhanger' but you do lose readership. That said the faithful will stick with you

You’ll get diminishing returns if you break it up. You’re probably not a master of the cliffhanger if you’re even asking. Just might as well full schlong em with the whole thing.

Question, hope I'm in the right place now.
I have about 100,000 words, part of an even longer story. I want to put that sub story up here. It will stand alone without a problem. I'm currently editing it to remove a little bit of content that is not permissible here. It's in chapters of 7,500 + words. What would be the best way for me to put it up here. It seems like a lot of the stories here are shorter than my chapters.
Any and all advice will be Greatly appreciated.
Thank you, amy

Hi Amy. Thanks for your question.
We have a 10,000 word cap for our stories. Multiple part stories are fine, but each part you submit would have to be 10,000 words or less.
Hope that answers your question!

Thank you RavenStar,
That does answer my question. It sounds like each of my chapters of 7,500 to about 9,000 words must go up separately, that's perfect for me. If I have other questions I'll ask here.
Thank you,
