I have the tendency to over-write, but I'm rubbish at guessing how long a novel is going to be. This'll be as long as it needs to be, but I'm not going to bust a blood vessel to finish it before December. Since I conceived the plot I've actually grown quite attached to the story, which was meant to be a throwaway pulpy thing.

If I can finish it in time I will, but I got other stuff to worry about first and foremost.
