Anyway, I'm probably way off topic here and way, way too wordy besides. But your post just struck something in my and I couldn't keep my big yap shut.
Not too wordy, given the particular LJ (I could hardly accuse anyone else of being too wordy with a straight face). The pacing question is always an interesting one, for me; I can read books that most people consider glacial and plotless because to me everything that occurs on the page is enormously interesting. Because of this quirk, I'm aware that I don't entirely understand what pacing means to other people.
But with the CAST novels, I play with pacing, among other things.
