Ooh I cracked the top 500. I’m at about 475k words.

Took me a few tries to find my user since I wasn’t expecting the case sensitivity.

Thanks for this. Another book you could add for comparison purposes would be James Joyce’s Ulysses. Or I guess the unabridged The Stand by Stephen King would be good too.

Ooh The Stand (unabridged) is estimated at 473,000 words! I wrote The Stand in comment length. Wow.

top 438, I had no idea

  • Same. I’d never have guessed I was so high. I know I can be wordy, but I just assumed there were tons of people who commented more and had been here way longer.

    Not as many as I thought, it seems.
