I just barely managed to grind out my words for today. Now about to collapse into bed. Book 2 is looking to be about 90-95k words though instead of 80. I might blow my deadline!
I shoot for 90k and give myself up to 100k words. This should result in an 11-12 hour audiobook which isn't bad in terms of convincing people to use credits.
I'm in rewrites for a SF/space opera book right now. with a HaremLit book at the editor. With some family time out of town coming up, I might be back to actual writing before July.
I use writetrack to keep myself honest, and track my daily words, but I'd be happy to sign on for this as well. Do we add ourselves in or request it?
Welcome, KChilds. You did 12k on your first day on the tracker, huh? Also, I fixed an outstanding bug in the Leaderboard. Der.
Hey, mind if I'm a part of this leaderboard, @Paul Bellow? I'm getting back in the rhythm of this for now... and I plan to work on what I'm tentatively calling a saga (I'm not sure how much I'll write in this series before I can officially call it a series). I'll see about adding myself onto the list right now... just to see if I can do it right.
...well, before I forget, what constitutes as word counts for this spreadsheet? I'm confused on this subject.
I add up the words I write from midnight to midnight in a given "day"... i round up or down on the 50 word mark. Others are being more exact with how many words they wrote for the corresponding day. HTH.
