[QUOTE="Kaledor, post: 1389905, member: 15360"] [b]word counts[/b] I'm not the writing-editor, but I can definitely say that we are very flexible. In our last issue, looking at the Feats Article we had (on average) 150 words per feat, but had word counts of 50 to 300 depending on the feat! In the Magic Items Article we had (on average) 400 words per entry, but had as little as 250 and as many as 560+. If you've picked up [URL=http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=2481&] [U]the last issue[/U][/URL] you'll see that some authors included more history in their articles than others and that can really add to the word count. I do a lot of the final layout and can say that we can handle most any word counts. So the simple answer is "necessary and sufficient" -- include as many words as it takes to detail Monster or Spell. If this doesn't help or you've got something more specific you can contact Maggie McCall at [email]mpitgroup@yahoo.com[/email]-- she's the writing editor but doesn't visit messageboards often...
