FROM: Annie Croakley

Question: Can I keep very large documents, say 50,000 words, on my computer?

Answer: 

Dear Annie,

Yes you can. BUT personally I prefer to keep large documents in smaller chunks, maybe part 1, part 2, part 3, etc. Alternatively save them in chapters if you're writing a book, and name them with a brief title plus the chapter number. For instance: MyStory01. Put the zero in front until you get to 10 then increment from there. This will keep the chapters in proper sequence on your hard disk. Otherwise '1' will come after '9'. Ridulous I know, but that's computers for you. This makes your work so much easier to handle and, of course, to print out for proof reading and checking.
