Copy and paste the 15000 words over and over until you get 50,000.

That's a thought. I've thought about just writing stream of consciousness garbage just to hit the 50,000. I quoted about 1,000 words from "War of the Worlds" the other day...I made it fit...honest...and I threw in the words to a Patsy Cline song. Maybe my characters should sing more...

Quoting is legit...right? Then again maybe not.

As long as you footnote and give credit... quote all you want.

You guys should just do like JRRT did. He just sat down at his desk and wrote, no outlines, no story line sketches, no nothing.
