Only way to do it. It's clear you're hooked onto a spiritual level that only you can explain and we hanker to know about. Love your stuff. Inspiring me to change where I'm going with my stuff. Thanks. Just write till you can’t write no more. Only way to do it. It’s clear you’re hooked onto a spiritual level that only you can explain and we hanker to know about. Love your stuff.

How can you put an arbitrary number on your self-expression? Why not 45,000? 50,000? If you wrote 25,000 but your software counted wrong and gave you 35,000 would you feel you could stop? Write what you need to say and let the word count work itself over. Too many books nowadays are padded with useful crap. What is leading you to say your book “needs” to be 30,000–40,000 words?
