My latest story, still called "Pirate", for want of a better title, now has the following stats:
76 pages (74 of which are actual story, 2 being notes)
35,308 words
163,694 characters (no spaces)
198,254 characters (with spaces)
865 paragraphs
2,623 lines
Again, Mrs Palmer was 3 pages, 24,213 words, 133,333 characters (inc spaces), 564 paragraphs, 2260 lines!
So, Pirate is now the longest story I have ever written.
A novel is supposed to be anything between 60,000 and 100,000 words, so I'm between half way and a third of the way there... Yay...?
The story is by no means finished yet, so there is every chance of it hitting the right length... I may have to pad certain bits out a bit though.
Now, if you will excuse me, I need to lie down. Someone has been fucking with the gravity in here and it's all over the place right now...
What? No, it has nothing to do with the margaritas, whatsoever!
