Well, I've got 34 pages done and I just finished a rather dark and moving part of the story, tentatively and collectively titled "Patientia". Try looking up that word... it's in a different language. But anyway, I'm beginning a slightly more relaxing part of the story, which then leads to the finale. I should be finished soon, and I estimate that the story will end at around 50 pages on word.

One thing of note, though - I intend to leave a cliffhanger at the end, so expect a sequel if this one is well received.

patience, suffering, endurance, forbearance....


The word practically tells its own story.
There ya go. The word has multiple meanings, which is exactly what I wanted to portray.
 
...And I just now finished that relaxing part of the story, though it didn't turn out as relaxing as I wanted it to be. It, more or less, explains what happened in the dark part of the story, which spanned three or four chapters. In any case, I'm on Page 36, and I have 15K words written.

And now... onto the finale.
 
Wow keep going Bulerias! I've never written that much and never will well maybe for College yes


:( But otherwise on my own time i hate writing its just I hate it. But its good you love it as a passion and it makes you write novels such as this hmm are you going to think about doing this for a life thing? Eh I'm too quick to think since the story has not been released yet so well see how good this story is I'm sure it will be good.
 
36 pages? What size is the font? Usually the stories I write (Which will remain in a password-protected part of my PC forever!) are only about 15-20 pages each with the size 14 font.

In any case, keep up the good work.

Short stories, you've got there.


:p

Mine was 106 pages, 12 font, Times New Roman (With another type of text when a certain character talked, though that wasn't an important character, so that text was rarely used.)
 
Anything below 75+ pages hardly seems like a book though.

Reminds me more of Dr. Seuss.

You gotta remember that these are Microsoft Word pages. Each one is two - three real life pages.
