Target Breakdowns

So how am I going to do this? Having decided that I need about 32400 to get my work The Keeper of Men up to the 50k novel length target I have worked out that I need to write between 1040 - 1100 words per day for 31 days.

This will give me an end total word count of 32240 - 34100 words which, when added to the 17638 words already written prior to

Welcome! I signed up for the 49,999 mark (this, after signing up for JulNoWriMo and only ending up with 25k new from the 50k I wanted; but that brings me to 45k so far, from two previous months (I did manage to meet the goal of 10k per month for each of the two), and I don't think I'm at the half-way point yet, so I'll keep adding to it. I'm going to start earlier and rewrite from the third to last scene because I forgot several important elements to the book to put in, because the details are necessary. It will not be a revision. ;-) Even if I don't get to the 49,999, if I can break 25k, then I'm well on the way to warming up for NaNoWriMo.

Considering it's a planned trilogy, I won't run out of things to write about for quite some time. ;-)

Anyway, good luck!
