Because this month is starting to get away from me, I think I’m going to switch from DAILY update posts to WEEKLY update posts, beginning today (07/10/24). This will actually work out quite well since the last day of this month’s Camp NaNoWriMo happens to fall on a Wednesday, too. I’ll continue to utilize the same format I’ve been using for such posts — with the only difference being that I’ll list a week’s worth of data instead of just a day’s worth as I was doing at the beginning of the month. So… Without further ado, here are the stats for 07/04-10/24:
Thursday, 07/04/24 — 1539 words/5 pages for a total of 4593 words/16 pages
Friday, 07/05/24 — 1210 words/5 pages for a total of 5803 words/21 pages
Saturday, 07/06/24 — 6033 words/17 pages for a total of 10890 words/38 pages
Sunday, 07/07/24 — 4620 words/14 pages for a total of 16456 words/52 pages
Monday, 07/08/24 — 3879 words/15 pages for a total of 20335 words/67 pages
Tuesday, 07/09/24 — 382 words/1 page for a total of 20718 words/68 pages
Wednesday, 07/10/24 — 402 words/1 page for a total of 21119 words/69 pages
I imagine you’re probably wondering why I wrote SO MANY words between Friday, 07/05/24 and Monday, 07/08/24! I know I was while transcribing the data above — until I realized that this was the first weekend of July, which meant that it was the weekend for July’s GWIC (Global Write-in Crawl) event. GWIC is a full weekend of camaraderie with other writers, but, more importantly, it’s chock full of WRITING SPRINTS! The event is organized as a series of global train stations during which the local hosts introduce writers to their area of the globe AND conduct writing sprints of varying lengths (anywhere from 3 minutes to 20 minutes in length) for two-hour blocks of time — with an hour-long break between stops. It’s SO MUCH FUN, AND it never ceases to amaze me just how many words I’m able to crank out during the GWIC weekend! I’ve got the stats (see above) to prove it!
