Have you ever finished a story? How long is it? No - are you kidding? I have too many ideas in my head - way too many - for that.
What's the most amount words you've ever edited? How long did it take you? Uh . . . . Honestly, I don't know, because Ive never timed myself. And I don't really count my words; Bean does that for me.
What's the longest amount of time you've ever stuck with one story? Little over a year, I think.

Have you ever finished a story? How long is it?
No ((>'.'<)) But I've written multiple chapters for various stories
What's the most amount words you've ever edited? How long did it take you?
Edited? Hrm... It would probably have to be multiple thousand and probably about 15 minutes ((I have a process I go through >^.^<))
What's the longest amount of time you've ever stuck with one story?
Tough one...I honestly have no idea >.< I never really thought about it much. I'd start one and go as far as it kept interesting ((which typically depends on how much I thought it through)) So, Imma hafta go with maybe 3 months? ((I don't typically think through one-author-stories much >^.^<)) For multiple authors, though, they tend to go much longer ((*great rejoicing*))

Have you ever finished a story? How long is it? Ah well, yes. I guess? 5700 something words, part of a collab book we were supposed to get published before summer. But my friends are taking so long and our teacher and mentor are getting kinda angry at us. I mean, we'll get published before Christmas so it's just a waiting game now.
What's the most amount words you've ever edited? How long did it take you? That would be my story mentioned above^^^ Honestly, I wanna say I finished it before last year's Christmas and have been editing like once or twice a week since then until school ended back in late May. So a long time, much longer than it should have taken.
What's the longest amount of time you've ever stuck with one story? Outside of the collab book, I wanna say the 100 one-shot challenge... and then it kinda died oops. Most of my story ideas just stayed on paper, never to get typed up. They've been with me a while and I just never got started >.>

      Have you ever finished a story? How long is it?
      Yes. I've finished a ton of short stories, but I've finished five novels now.
      Each of them were a little over 120,000 words.
      The longest one (Sea Sway), ended up at 168,000 - rounding from an odd number.
      What's the most amount words you've ever edited? How long did it take you?
      Probably Sea Sway, which is the 168,000. But I ended up scrapping it, because I felt i could do much better.
      What's the longest amount of time you've ever stuck with one story?
      I've written numerous drafts of Sea Sway over the course of... seven years now? Eight, maybe.

You seem to do a lot of working on everything about the story except actually writing it, Afflated. XD

Have you ever finished a story? How long is it?
Yup, like Ranger said, we've done Misfits of Vernada, which was about 70K. And I've also finished The Fate of Eamundia which was around 50k, for Nano last year. it's bad. Really, really bad.[/i]
What's the most amount words you've ever edited? How long did it take you?
Hmm.... Eamundia? I edited the whole thing [strike]badly
but seconding that is Misfits
What's the longest amount of time you've ever stuck with one story?
Well, working of for all that time would be Misfits, which, as Ranger said, we've been working on for over a year. The one that's been around for the longest would either be Eamundia which I came up with the idea a couple of years ago, but didn't do much with it until last year, or another story I had the idea for when I was like ten. I still haven't done more than a few chapters with it, but I plan to write it some day.
