I wrote 18 pages (2.5 pages were outline). do not know the exact word count but excluding outline it should be 2250-2300 words at least.

Why the forum is dormant? I didn't notice activity of the members. You people need to share your DMCs, +ve / -ve experiences and selective material for collective benefit. By any means, sharing and interactive process won't harm you.
