4000 Words

That's my daily writing record. 4000 words. That's about 16 pages or so.

I set this record yesterday writing Marathon #2: Bay City Defenders.

It's a real productivity break through for me. My daily record prior to that was just above 2000 words, or 8 pages.

I know that I probably shouldn't obsess over my writing speed, but hey, I'm a numbers guy. I like to see my productivity stack up. I don't fool myself into thinking I'll ever write that one big novel that nets me millions. I do, however, entertain illusions of writing a ton of books that make me a little bit each month.

Now I need to work on putting big days back to back to back. I'm trying for 10k words this weekend. Friday through Sunday. We'll see how it goes.
