I only track them through a first draft, when I'm trying to add words, not eliminate them. Even then, though, there are many times when I write 1500 or 2000 words, only to decide that the scene isn't working and all those words disappear. Do I adjust my word count or not? Usually I do. Anyway, thanks for the post. Happy writing to you, and happy 2018! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08907123006268829477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-32743832399415967692018-01-04T06:24:06.577-06:002018-01-04T06:24:06.577-06:00Hey Charles and Happiest of New Year to you.

I've crept out of limbo after 2 years and am settling happily in our new home at the sea, with it a number of changes are in motion, all good, all good *smiles* I feel it in my bones 2018 is going to be a good year for everyone so let's run with it.Shadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05999801833389058410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-62301298952848693792018-01-02T09:59:50.373-06:002018-01-02T09:59:50.373-06:00Cat, Looking forward to hearing of your trips.

I enjoyed reading your post, more so as I have set certain reading and writing goals for myself in 2018; two areas I totally neglected last year.

I hardly ever finish longer projects in one year, so I could have no publishing in one year and several in another.

I still gauge my writing in terms of word count, but a recent blog post by Dean Wesley Smith suggested another way is published things. If you go that route, he says, then you can account for daily varieties without 'falling behind' on some sort of annual word count. Finally, to be named as an influence...awesome!Scott D.
