| Mine (and the only finished novel I have) was 98k, and in the process of editing, will get a little bit longer, but I don't think much longer. |

Word count is about 230,000. I say about because I no longer keep an eye on it. Including though the writing on the graphics (newsprint), my WC is probably fetching 230,000 plus words to be exact.
The prelude years of the American Revolution will kick your butt. XD
As for pages? I no longer look at that either, lol! My guess I have about two hundred to two hundred and fifty pages. Can't imagine what the WC will be in the second half of the war itself. Rotten characters. XD |

A novel is anything past 100 pages, so maybe, um, 70,000? more or less. i dunno. I suck at math. haha
My longest story was about 30,000 words. I haven't finished it....lol |

I feel like my stories are so short!

Geez!
It took me over a year to finish mine. Does it help any that I was only 12/13 years old though? I've improved quite a bit since then, all thanks to YWS.  |

^ I feel for you. I wrote my best short story ever, and then I lost it. Along with all my other writing in that journal. Not as bad, but it still sucks.
The longest I've ever written (though, technically, this was with my friend, ) is going around 230-245 pages right now. I'm not putting up word count because I'm afraid that my freind will look at character count. The longest I've ever written by myself it about 90 pages of pure, untyped, unedited, suckiness (I ditched it when it was almost done. Maybe I'll go back to it sometime.)
An aknoledged novel is 50,000 words. I congradulate anyone who gets there or-even better-past it. |
