I've not done any more of my novel today, instead I've written an assigment for my history course - it was supposed to be 800 words, but ended up being about 1,500! That done, I can concentrate on my writing - I won't have any more assigments for a while, not until I sign up to more courses at any rate.
Anyway I thought it would be a good idea to keep a running tally of how many words I've done on my novel. It's perhaps not the best measure of how I'm doing, but it's an easily measurable measure. When I reach certain milestones I can give myself a pat on the back and have a party!
My current word count is 10,667 words. Not a massive amount, but it's probably close to the most I've ever written on one story. I hope to be able to report an increased word count soon... Unfortunately, the need to do a lot of research at each stage of the story slows me down considerably but never mind!
