Wow! kira really does write alot!!

[kiramaru7]

Last month COM did this thing where you could leave your word count for the day in preparation for Nano. I'm not doing Nano, but I decided to post my daily word counts anyways. Well. I thought I had written anywhere from 2000 to 3000 words, with a lucky day of just over 1400 words. Most of them seem to be in the 100 to 500 word range. Well, I totaled them all up & came up with a whopping 12515 for the month of October. And that's not including any editing as I wrote either. Sometimes, I'll erase whole sentences & start over. XD Not too shabby a month, plus this also explains why I haven't gotten my November bingo card together yet. XD Never mind writing anything for it. XD

Congrats, that's fantastic.

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Thanks! That total shocked me completely! XD

I told you so

In the many, many discussions about word counts over the years we have had, mostly you saying you write SO much less than me and then me hunting down the numbers and showing you that you tend to write more than double I do each month in both word count and number of fics posted, you tend to average about 10,000 words a month.

And I have always said you should track it for a month and see what happens. All of last month you were so motivated to write so you could check in. But it is really not unusual for you to post 10-20 fics in a month.

You did great!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

It's a great accomplishment.

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

And on numerous occasions. XD

Seriously, it really doesn't feel like I am writing that much. And I still haven't gotten my bingo card together & we're one week into the month. XD

I should try tracking it just to see how much I can write in a month. I just never remember to do it on my own. Last month the challenge was to write everyday for a month, so I had motivation. XD

Thanks, Vexed. :D

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Thanks. The only downside is, I'm all written out & have yet to make my bingo card. XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I bet you have more in you!

[kattrip033.livejournal.com]

LOL. Sorry, I couldn't help busting out the sparkles.

I know, but you are. It's not a bad thing. You can always get a tiny card.

XD

Thanks! Since I have the day off & I have a few things to do in the morning, when I get back, I think I'll try & write. XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

there you go. I'm taking the time while the students are testing to write myself.

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I haven't written anything though. XD I'm not blocked, I'm just not motivated at the moment. *sighs* But then it'll hit me & I'll write something. :D I do have a bit of a plot bunny running around my head, so there's that. :D

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Understood.

I'm trying to write but the election news is murdering me

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

*nods*

I'm not watching it at all. I don't like either candidate, so it'll suck whatever the outcome. XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I'm not watching it either and I felt the same about the candidates but hated one more than the other

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Me too.
