Jenny, Glad to read below that your back is doing better! Hope everything keeps going well. Just wondering if you're still working on your novel? Hope it's going well if you are!

hi!
novel writing month is over, I made it to more than 50,000 words, but my story still needs some work. I think the story is ended, but I need to go back through and make some changes, parts of it need to be moved around. I will take a break and edit it in the new year.
**busting in**
CONGRATS on winning the month! That is so awesome. How many pages does 50,000 words end up being all typed? I can't imagine being able to string it all together, and then i think about books like "Gone with the Wind" and it is HUGE... a big undertaking. Although it took Margaret Mitchell 10 years for that, so I guess it makes sense...
Congrats on your 50,000 words. OMG that is a lot.
My sister e-mailed me a paper she wrote for school so I could edit it.. It was only 2000 words. OMG. I was SO over it by the time I got done. Just when I thought it was coming to a close, it.kept.on.going. AH!
P.S. I know NOTHING about Gone w/ the Wind. =/
this story is 90 pages in Microsoft Word. I'm not sure how many pages it would be as an actual novel, but its shorter than most novels. With the editing I am expecting to add another 20,000 words or so, so it should be more than 100 pages, but once I format it like a novel, with chapter breaks, that will add some pages.
I think the average novel is 70-120K
