: Re: Should I turn my enormous novel into a series? I am currently writing a novel and am 25,000 words into it, but only about 10% of the way in total. My intention was to write a single novel,

If you are e-publishing, or print-on-demand, then the dilemma is gone: You can do both.
So your volumes can look like this:

The Chronicles of David, Volume I: The Coming Storm
The Chronicles of David, Volume II: The Eye of the Hurricane
The Chronicles of David, Volume III: The Wind, Reversed
The Chronicles of David, Volume IV: The Celebration
The Chronicles of David, Volume V: The Hangover

and finally,

The Chronicles of David, The Omnibus Edition, which contains the text of the first five volumes.

Truth be told, you are trying to cross a bridge before you've reached it. You will need to finish the story first before you really know where to best make volume divisions.
