All four are in the 7-9k words range but none have the end in sight yet.
I never set a word limit. The stories goes until it is told.
I'm with you there. I never have set a limit, unless it was called for in the instructions like a contest or assignment back when I was in school. I hated writing papers for Instructors that were limited to three pages. I often killed my characters off because I had so much more story for them to be told and had no room to tell it.
I've had short stories in the 1200 range and longer pieces in the 80K (that one is not on Lit. - maybe someday). Right now my newest story is 4600 and reaching the turning point. If I'm lucky I'll have it finished today.
