Sine then, each rewrite rather adds than removes. A few new lines here and there, but that is because I am now certain how my narrative voice and structure looks like.
Hmm...I'm mulling about dividing my long chapters to around 2.5k - 3k. So what do you think? Should I just add them to the old books and adjust the chapter numbering, or create a new story for it?
I'm kinda apprehensive because of my former mistakes of deleting them before, hence I'm doubtful if I should create a new book if ever I divide my chapters.
Both works, but it depends on how large you are, I would say. If you have a good reader and popularity base, divide. If not, then you can also burn down the entire house, figuratively speaking, and rebuild it.
