answer:Well let’s see. When I put the novel I just finished in size 12 Times New Roman, it reaches 95 pages. It’s about 60,000 words, which is pretty average. A novel technically only has to be 40,000 words – this is the low end, but is what many people aim for when they’re confining themselves to just a month of writing like in NaNoWriMo. My novel is 66 pages at the 40,000 words mark. Words really are a more reliable measure because number of pages for a given number of words varies wildly, mostly based on how much dialogue you have. Dialogue, being on separate lines, can increase your number of pages by a lot. I would say my novel has a below-average amount of dialogue.
