In proportion to the rest of the skin the add/edit chapter boxes seem very small. Where can I edit the sizing ?

Looks like they may be in /includes/storyform.php - you'll have to edit the php (carefully - I'd make a backup copy).

I just stumbled upon it in the course of editing my new skin.

In includes/storyform.php, find:

$output .= "<div><label for="storytext">"._STORYTEXTTEXT.":</label>".(!$storytext ? "<span style="font-weight: bold; color: red">*</span>" : "")."<br><textarea class="textbox" rows="15" id="storytext" name="storytext" cols="58">".$storytext."</textarea></div>";

Change the rows # (15 in the example) to a higher number for the box to be taller.  Change the cols # (58 in the example) for it to be wider.  Be careful with existing theme constraints!

Yeah, it's important to note also this changes it for all themes, so if you're working with multiple ones it might be good for one, but not another.
