5850.

But major breakthrough last night brought good research today on the T. Lots of sticky notes that need to be turned into good content.

30k? Woah...

It's obviosu whose the professional writer here. I still have 1k more words today just to get back on time, at 28, 333, and I'm a day ahead of you.

I consider this a challange to my rightful, 5k a day dominance.

Amendment: went back and added a few paragraphs I'd been thinking about while brushing my teeth. So, count for the end of the night is 6129.

Heh.  Don't judge too much based on me, JP.  The thing is, this is my job.  I have a lot more resources to put into writing than most people do.

Even more resources than most writers, sometimes. When you're talking about resources other than material. Like staying with it.

I could only find numbers for day 16 for three people (counting myself), since JP's numbers appeared to be for his day 17. correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway, numbers are up.

All three of today's posters have a higher percentage of the daily goal than they did the day before. that means progress!

SE, did you change the value for your daily goal? It seems that with getting over 3000 words a day, you should normally be getting over 100% on daily goal percentages.

Doesn't that make me RIGHT JP? That number is the only number I've seen posted for you since your day 15 numbers.

Stacer, no. The way the "Daily" goal % works is it measures where you are in relation to where you should be so far this month. So on day one, if you write 1667 words, you get 100%. To be at 100% on day two, you have to have written 3333 TOTAL words.

So the percentage should steadily increase if you get closer and closer to each day's "daily" goal, ie, you wrote more than 1667 words that day.

I put that up as a day 15 number. you have such a wonky time schedule, you need to tell me a day if you want me to get it right.
