It’s a month in — how did I do?
14,782 words written in the month of January. That works out to an average of 477 words per day. In fact, I didn’t write every single day of the month; far from it.
I’ve got 189,465 words to go. 16,451 words in February — 567 words per day on average. That’s ninety more words per day than last month’s daily goal… but, heck, that’s just a sentence or so more per day. Piece of cake.
Anyone else doing this thing? How did you do?

Great job! 90 more words a day shouldn’t be bad at all.
I’m not going for a specific word-count goal for the year, but I am aiming to build up my writing habit. I posted about my January progress here.
Good luck!
You have shamed me, Selznick. I was lucky to write even a couple thousand last month. It encourages me to pull my finger out.
