If I Could Keep This Up ...
I've created a spreadsheet to track my progress and tell me how many words per day I need to produce in order to make it to 50,000 by the end of the month.
Looking at my spreadsheet, it's easy to see that while I got off to a pretty slow start, the last ten days have been pretty phenomenal -- my average word count for those ten days has been 2,800/day.
If I could keep up that pace, I'd be done with this whole thing by next Sunday, despite only having had 8,000 words done by the 10th.
Sadly, I think there are things this week that are going to interfere with that. But if I can still manage to crank out 7-800 words at lunchtime every day, plus another thousand or so at bedtime, I'll still be ahead of the game. I've already managed about 450 words today, and it's not even lunchtime yet!
Heck, according to my spreadsheet, I'm about two days ahead at this point. Not that I plan to take two days off, mind you. At least, not intentionally.
