Roughly how many single-spaced pages is 50,000 words?

100, I think, since I'm pretty sure double spaced is 250.

I finished at just over 55,000 words, which ended up being 91 single-spaced pages, including a number of page breaks to separate chapters.

Obviously it depends on how dialog-intensive your novel is, but I think if you can get 100 pages, you definitely make the 50,000.
