Unanchored (3 1/2 chapters): 4,737
Unanchored (3 1/2 chapters): 4,737
I'm at 29,167 or something. it's dragging, considering I started this at the beginning of July. I should be way past this by now. :( It's only at 67 pages, even though I'm not counting the extra scenes I've been working on.
For my finished book The Seventh Dimension, I've got 170,000 unedited words.
For Of the Fallen I've got like... 13,000.

In my radtastic fantasy that is in desperate need of re-plotting and a makeover and a new title, I have 11,639. That's for three chapters (one that isn't finished) and a short prologue.
In One Last Look, which has been discontinued but I'm counting anyway because I need to feel accomplished, I have 15,585. It has six (one unfinished) chapters and a prologue... I think?
I don't have many in my stories that I'm concentrating on.... ehehe....

Errr... I'm estimating because I'm on my iPod. Also remember I have 4 or 5 other stories running in my notebooks that I have no intention to count by hand. :)
Destiny: 52000
Pure Ridden; 2100
Changing shadows: 53000
Chill: 5000
Skyborn: 11000

me too! Every time i think of wrapping it up-another plot point comes to mind.
I swear, it has changed so much form the original plan.
Estimating about 10000 words left...

Because it was crapola. I wrote it back before I knew anything about character development or plots... haha.

I'm to lazy to check right now, but last time I checked "Forces of Nature", it was a little over 21,000 words. And the book isn't even near the middle, too.

:) My friends are always ecstatic when I show them one at school...and then I stop writing at the climactic parts. It irritates them very very much.
Maybe because we can't start yelling at you, and in the back of your mind you're sort of thinking none of us are real. :3

Yes, but when you see somebody's icon, unless like me if you've video chatted with some of then, if you see their comment you don't try to imagine another person on the other side typing up something, do you?

@ Maria: lol, sometimes yes and sometimes no. :)

But it's usually just a kid or something staring blankly at the screen typing away. BLEH SCARY. And whenever someone is telling me about something they did their picture is them.

lol...I guess maybe I would do that. BUT I AM GOING THROUGH AN UMBRELLA PHASE RIGHT NOW. I wanted this one: http://www.amazon.com/Kikkerland-Eye-...But my mom wouldn't let me buy it cuz she was all like "It never rains in AZ!" But then there was a giant monsoon thingy that came for 2 weeks. >.>
