Final Word Count: 34,555

Written by Aaron on June 21st, 2009

I didn’t hit my goal, but I am more than happy with my first attempt. I penned 34,555 words in 30 days. That’s an average of 1,152 per day. Which ain’t too shabby.

Realistically, I’m probably not going to meet my 50,000-word goal by my deadline, which is fast approaching. That’s okay with me, because I’m more than halfway done and I will continue to work on it until I reach the 50,000-word mark. I’m okay with that. The exercise is to get someone writing, which it did. I’ve posted some excerpts anonymously on some writing critique websites and most of the comments are positive; in fact, they are way more positive than I was expecting.

I’ll be posting some excerpts here in the coming days, and am considering publishing the finished work here as a serial. We’ll see.
