I'm using Courier New, 12 pt. with 1 inch boarders all around. Paragraphs are double spaced; I've even set my header and footers as small as possible.
Yet, I'm going getting 115.4 words per page.
It's a 31k MG manuscript, so I have short paragraphs, but I'm not using a lot of large words.
I thought I should get about 250, maybe 220 because I've got lots of paragraphs and dialog.
I've gotta print out 6 copies of the first 5 chapters of my manuscript for a workshop--I'm looking at over a ream of paper.
Something doesn't seem right to me, or is this normal?
