BOOK LENGTHS

I keep wondering if I could ever manage to tell a story in the average length of words. I see how most books are 80,000 words and nothing I've worked on has ever been that short. Shadows of Starpoint Mountain is pretty close to 110,000 words. The Dr Who novel was that way and even the piece of crap novel is pretty close to that length.

I sometimes worry that it will be difficult to get and agent without cutting but there isn't a lot of fluff in my books.
