I just finished writing 11,000 words of a novel in the past six hours, in orded to make 25,000 total words for my National Novel Writing Month submission.

11,000 words is roughly 50 pages. Fifty pages of fiction in six hours? That's more than eight pages per hour which is a little more than one page every seven minutes. Or 30 words per minute of coherent story-telling non-stop for six hours.

I think you're predestined for a nap. 8~)

I’m exhausted reading your analysis.

To those who follow my posts on the more political threads, they probably would not be surprised at all by the numbers. I am constantly accused of overwhelming the threads with verbage.

Thanks again...
