too short chapters

Hi, thats a nice thing that you are up with the novel and already have finished half way! In this thing, i will suggest you to have it the way it is. Just in the beginning of the page before the heading that, its just a scene that want to share with you guys! I suggest you not to add it with the previous or the net chapter. It might be elongated and may even divert the user. You just place it between the two chapters, just like the interval while watching movies or a break in between while watching a show! I think that will do!

There is no set length for chapters some authors do put in chapters that are only a page or so long. In the book I'm working on I have some short chapters and it does seem to work. It is your story and you should make up your own mind. But what would I do? I'd would either leave it separate or do as you have said and use the *****.

I tend to think that if it doesn't fit with the chapter before or the chapter afterward, it may not belong in the book. Everything you write in a novel should hang together in some way. But maybe it just needs to be developed into something longer, and also hooked to the other chapters. If it really doesn't work with the other chapters, then using asterisks to separate it isn't going to accomplish anything. There are really no rules about this kind of thing. I've read novels with very short chapters, but that's the way the whole novel is written. A very short one that doesn't lead to or from anything is going to stick out like a sore thumb. Think about what you're trying to accomplish in the novel, then see if you can figure why it doesn't fit.
