User blog:Aleksei Of the Thirteen Toes/Creepy Pasta Length and Suggestions

Hiya, I was just wondering what length of pastas that people tend to like to read. I am about to start on my first pasta and thought it would be nice to get some feedback. I myself tend to enjoy short to medium length ones, ones that are super long tend to intimadate me unless they grab you at the very begining with a great first few lines or idea (ie: Humper-Monkey's Ghost Story). Also I was looking for some suggestions or tips for writing pasta. I've read over the overused cliche's and will do my best to avoid those and will use a word processor/spell check before bringing it here. I've also read the User Submission and Site Rules but any other little tid bits would be helpful. Also what are some of you guys favorite pastas?
