Abstract Models and Foreign Keys in Django

I am working on a django project in which I create a set of three abstract models that I will use for a variety of apps later on. The problem I am running into is that I want to connect those models via ForeignKey but django tells me that it can't assign foreignkeys to an abstract model.

My current solution is to assign foreignkeys when I instanciate the class in my other apps. However, I am writing a Manager for the abstract classes (book and pages) right now and would need to access these foreignkeys. What I am basically trying to do is to get the number of words a book has in a stateless manner, hence without storing it in a field of the page or book.

The model looks similar to this:

class Book(models.Models):
    name = models.CharField(...)
    author = models.CharField(...)
    ...

    class Meta:
        abstract = True

class Page(models.Models):
    book = models.ForeignKey(Book)
    chapter = models.CharField(...)
    ...

    class Meta:
        abstract = True

class Word(models.Models):
    page = models.ForeignKey(Page)
    line = models.IntegerField(...)
    ...

    class Meta:
        abstract = True

Note that this model here is just to give an example of what I am trying to do, hence whether this model (Book-Page-Word) makes sense from an implementation standpoint is not needed.
