Let's see if the word thingy works.

PS -- I hate word thingys. I don't undestand how anyone can know exactly how long a story can be and I don't know how you can be sure which words are going to stay and which ones are going to get cut. My life is an assortment of scraps of paper. My clutter has clutter. So I'm off to find food and coffee and then I'm going to try to get organized.

It might take a week.

Hahaha! When will I ever finish my 69 word novel? Oh, lament that is cries countless...

(Multiply by a thousand to get a slightly more accurate something something.)

Hahahahah! I dunno, 69 words? You might have bitten off more than you can chew, with a novel that size...

Yeah, I've never figured out how people know what the final wordcount of their stories will be before they finish them, either. What are you all doing!? Looking into the future!?

It looks like you're 53.6% finished! LOL! Was that a Freudian slip?

Although, a 69 word novel COULD be an interesting read. ;)

"Was that a Freudian slip?" - I meant your comment about 69 words, not that your 53.6% finished. Although, hmmm...maybe that would work too. LOL! ;)

I think the novel will be around 69,000 words. Eventually. The word thingy confused itself. Who's Freud?

(<------- likes Jung more.)

...so then "69" (whether in thousands or not) is some sort of symbol through which, in some way, you're able to experience your unconscious? :) Heh...couldn't resist.
