November writing totals
5 years ago
Well, it's not quite the end of November (and #nanowrimo), but I think I've put a wrap on the current batch of writing projects. Kirin Hunter is live, and I've finished the first draft of 1001 date. As the later is content for Occupational Hazards, don't expect to see it any time soon. The one wrinkle in trying to put a word count on my productivity is that one of the works that was finished in November (Unicorn Hunter) was started in late October. As such, I can't exactly take credit for what had been written on the story as of November 1st as new content. Even so, have some numbers:
Unicorn Hunter (final): 6186
Unicorn Hunter (Nov 1): -~3750
Unicorn Hunter (Nov 1 rewrites): +~200
Kirin Hunter: 15559
1001 date: 3453
1001 date (branch overlap): -~50
Total: ~21,598 (or ~43% of the nanowrimo goal)
In terms of raw word count, this is ~50% more than what I had created during the prior (overlaping) 30 day window. As far as new content is concerned, the bulk of that content (~8,921) was the completion of Unicorn Hunter, and the remainder (~1572) was for 1001 date. This gives a total of ~10493 words of new content in the second ~half of the month, as compared to the ~3750 words of content crafted during the second ~half of October.
The one piece of bad(ish) news related to these numbers is that I don't have any new writing projects on deck at the moment (though plenty of abandoned or semi-abandoned works), so I don't expect my numbers in December (If I even post them) to come close to these levels.
