One Million Word Update

Back in November for the start of Nanowrimo, the Sheffield Science Fiction and Fantasy Writer’s group challenged themselves to see how quickly as a group, we could write one million words, with the aim to complete this goal by November 2016 and the next Nanowrimo. At the end of December the running total stood at 188,331 words.

This month has seen word count totals of Chris – 18,037 words; David – 2,445 words; Jo – 600 words; Kathryn – 26,712 words; Steve P – 500 words and Tom – 6,000 words.

That makes a month’s total of 54,294 words and a cumulative total of 242,625 word.

So there is just 757,375 words more to write.

One Million Words Target – 144688 Words So Far

So as a Writers, we decided to set ourselves the target of getting to a million words within a year (or as fast as we can get there.) We started recording our individual word count on the 1^st November to coincide with the start of Nanowrimo.

So without any further ado, our total word count as a group for November was 144688 words.

That was made up of word counts from Chris of 21917, David of 3554, Jo of 2378, Kathryn of 39070, Matthew of 72529 and Steve P of 5240.

Obviously as this is month one of the challenge, there are no other totals to add to that word count. Therefore the cumulative total stands at 144688 words and we have just the 855312 more to write.
