    Ooo, boy. Using the MICE quotient calculator and my current outline, I’m looking at 28,000 words. (My stories always do seem to go long…)

    I think I’ll go ahead and mark my goal at 15k, plan for 20k, and try to adjust my outline to keep it under 20k.

    I absolutely love this video, though. Super useful. 😀

    Characters = 4
    Scenes = 10 (they kind of blend together, though, so I’m hoping that helps cut the word count)
    MICE Threads = 4 (2 events, 1 milieu, 1 inquiry)
