Kind of what Johnathan said. Most of my pastas are considered "long". I typically have a start point and an end point in mind. Then I start writing and figure out how I'm going to get from point a to b. I try to ensure that my characters act somewhat logically, at least with regard to how their characters act (if they are younger characters they may do something that makes sense to them but wouldn't to a more experienced person). Absolutely agree to not go in with the notion that you have to make the story a certain length.
