Currently I'm working on a new story, that I'll start posting once I'm reasonably sure that I'll actually be able to finish it. But I ran into a practical question, so advice is welcome, either as a reader or a fellow writer. How important is consistency in chapter length?
As I have it now, the shortest chapter so far would contain two scenes, that count a mere 1300 words combined. The longest chapter so far isn't finished yet, but I'm at 2800 words at this point and expect it to reach at least 3500, if not 4000 words. That's just one scene and originally I had planned to add the next scene to that chapter as well, because it makes sense in the chronology of the story. So worst case one chapter could be three to four times as long as another. Is that something that would bother readers?
