Mere weeks after causing Word to stop spell-checking my novel, I've once again upset the internal workings of this program. On Monday I reached the magic number of 100,000 words. As soon as I passed 99,999 the "word count" indicator at the bottom of the window disappeared, as you can see in the screen shot below:

This is merely a glitch with the indicator on the window, because the number of words is still counted by the program:

I imagine this isn't a big problem because, let's be honest, who ever reaches 100,000 words in a document? Ah, what a magical number.
