    Well then, I'm assuming since I'm not in the status thread I ought to say something here.

    Mindscrew Min-Min, aka Myn, currently has about 30 thousand words (I don't know if there's a way to count on MS Word--if so, please do tell!) and 74 pages.

    Goal: finish by Christmas, estimated at 150-200 pages, but I'm not sure how much space the plot will take up exactly.

    On microsoft word, you can highlight the tools option, and it should be there as 'word count' it will give you how many pages, words and characters you've accumulated. If it's not under tools, look up 'word count' on your little helper's search bar. The paperclip actually has a use!

    And it turns out I'm up to 34, 824 words.
