My usual problem is that my books have ...Lucky you! My usual problem is that my books have too little plot. I often have trouble filling in the middle. That is why novellas and category length come naturally to me. The exceptions among my vampire novels -- DARK CHANGELING, CHILD OF TWILIGHT, and SEALED IN BLOOD -- are longer, the first one very long (for me), because they "just came" to me with subplots already in place. Most of my novel ideas don't seem to lend themselves to subplots. With DARK CHANGELING, in particular, it's so long because it grew out of an attempt to combine several related vampire stories I'd been working on, at irregular intervals, since age 13.
