The end_date is the end of the period you wish to calculate as a fraction of a year. The [basis] lets us define the âyearâ in a few different ways. 1 will give us the actual year. The DATE function takes a numerical year, a numerical month between 1-12, and a day between 1-31.
A. There are general guidelines for each literary category: Short stories range anywhere from 1,500 to 30,000 words; Novellas run from 30,000 to 50,000; Novels range from 55,000 to 300,000 words, but I wouldnât recommend aiming for the high end, as books the length of War & Peace arenât exactly the easiest to sell.
SO I got to googling. Here's the deal, most people online are going to say that your young adult book should be around 50,000 to 80,000 words. Anything over 100,000 is apparently wayyy too long. Yeah, okay...but the issue with that is the fact that most popular young adult novels tend to hover around 100,000 +/- 5,000.
