I'm struggling that too now and it's stressing me out!

Annika (XBrightCitiesx) | 6 comments All authors have unique writing styles, as you already know, and that is also shown in how many words are in each chapter. Some authors are known to have short chapters that are filled with rich literature—in comparison some have more extensive writing when describing characters, conversation, and setting. (These examples may vary)
It all matters on your own style; Although the average chapter I've read is roughly six pages long. (Remember book pages are smaller than word/google pages and have both sides with print) Do what you feel most confident in, push for those longer chapters if you need them, and heavily edit if you don't.
