I learned recently that certain genres do have word limits in publishing. Like if it is over a certain length it goes straight in the garbage because it depends on how the publisher deals with that market.
Totally bizarre but maybe that's what the celebrity was also alluding too with the sane people comment? Or not, I dunno.
