I'm 10,500 words into my novel. I dunno if that's considered very long, though.
That sounds like a lot. How many pages is it?

Double-spaced, it's 108. Dang, that's more than I thought, actually.

Wow, that's quite a lot.

WowIt wasn't that great.
What was it about?
A boy who goes into another world, supposedly this worlds 'savior'. There is a villian, a large snake with rams horns. Pretty much, the first thing the boy must do is find this genie that will tell him how he must save both worlds, Nakki (the name of this world) and Earth.
Through the whole book they go through adventures and fights, trying to get to this genie, The Genie Of Genies.

In second grade, I wrote a 12-page "novel" (single-spaced, Times New Roman size 10) and it completely sucked...
I got about 10,000ish words into a Harry Potter ripoff in fifth grade, and quit on that too.
I got 7,000ish words into a book recently, but I'm taking a break from it now.
And I finished a 14,000ish word story, which is completely absurd and humorous
“Exactly.” Miss Nesbit read it aloud: “ ‘This Wednesday is Annual National Close All the Shops and Stores in Town Day, Especially Corn Starch Companies and Food-coloring Factories and Baking-soda Bakeries and Vinegar [V]sellers.’ Now that’s alliteration!”
“What’s a [V]seller?” said Barbara.
“Stop talking nonsense, Barb, you’ve hit your head and are probably in no condition to talk,” Jimmy said. “Now then.” She looked at the paper. “Wednesday is tomorrow!” she declared.
“We know!” everyone said, except for Barbara, who had hit his head and was probably in no condition to talk.
“Let’s find out who wrote this flier,” said Jimmy.
Miss Nesbit then astounded them all with her detective skills: “This whole thing got Sir Barnabus written all over it!” (It did, in thick Sharpie marker.)
“But how can we be sure it was him?” asked Violet.
“Let’s ask someone,” said Miss Nesbit.
They stopped a distinguished-looking young gentleman riding his old bike down the street. “Excuse me, good citizen,” Vinnie said, “but you haven’t seen any sinister men in pirate hats lurking hereabouts... have you?” Everybody stared with creepy anticipation at the distinguished-looking young gentleman, who began to sweat nervously.

I have one about a physically messed up recombinant named Ben. I posted the 1st chapter on the writing megatopic. It's about 11,000 words long.

Yeah, except occasionally I'll reread it and change around a few things, but it's pretty much done.

Once I did some unfinished junk that was 280? or so A4 pages... 80309 words
The longest finished junk I've done is 156 of those pages.
The least junkiest work I've done is unfinished and around 110 pages so far.
And... yeah, but length doesn't really matter anyway.

Fine, I'll make a topic for that, too.

The longest story I've ever written is a half page anecdote for an essay

Wow. Not much of a writer then, are you?

A four and a half page story called "The Quest for the Best" or "TQFTB" for short.
