    This is the place to post the word count of your cuurent novel. Update your word count whenever you feel you've reached a milestone.

    And encourage each other! This usergroup should keep members from straying down the dark path of lost ambition and fading enthusiasm.

    Remember:

    0-15,000 words = short story
    15,000-50,000 words = Novella
    50,000 and up = Novel!

    Well, my current word count is 7,323 or something like that. I'll repost when I hit 17k. Yeah. That'll be a while!

    I haven't typed all of it yet, but I think I've reached around 3000. Then again, I had a friend look at it yesterday. I may end up starting all over again (oy).

    I'm not letting her put it down. She made some comments that were totally on the mark and I'd like to work them in.

    As I said in my introduction, I have 6,380 according to the word count in my Word on my laptop, but the one on my Mac would probably say different. Oh, and that's also just what I have typed up, though I don't have a ton more to type up any way. I'm writing it by hand, which is why it's not a bit higher. o.o

    Wow! I am at 12k, so as soon as pass 15k I will already have a novella! Cool!

    I have no clue what my precise wordcount is. Probably just under 50,000, because it was originally a NaNo, but then I lost all the files and only recovered about 75% of it. I'm slowly making my way back, though.

    Trials and tribulations. Sigh.

    Awwh, that sucks. But don't let it flop! *sigh* Wisky on a Sunday is a great novel! Sure to be a #1 bestseller in the future years!
