This is a hood idea to keep a report of your writing progress. I often consider doing something similar, but haven’t yet. I admire you for being so organised, Mel. That was a great idea for a novel and I hope it is progressing well and almost finished. It is interesting that you included edited words in your ‘real’ count…that makes sense in fact.
My output, as far as HubPages is concerned, has greatly reduced too. Thanks for sharing.
