Why can't I keep to a word count?

 The fucking second Carmine story I started which was designed to be about 5,000 words long has come out 1000 words over and I haven't finished writing it! I'm so pissed! I have to cut  over 1K by April 3 to turn it in the 4th (anthology is in Britain) to make the deadline.

Who else takes UF short stories? I'm afraid I won't have a market when I'm done. Also I haven't worked on the loooong Carmine story in awhile and I'm afraid I won't be able to pick it up. Like the long suffering Circumpolar short that is in a binder on my shelf.

HELP ME! *sob*
