002 - Use Word Count Logging To Motivate You To Write More
Last year I wrote 100,000 words of fiction (that's on top of all the non-fiction writing, mothering, wife-ing and general living I got done). In this episode I show you how to use word count logging to boost your writing output and to keep yourself accountable. I also invite you to join us at the Serious Writers' Accountability Group (SWAGr - we're 'serious', not 'sombre'!) at http://storyaday.org/category/swagr/ on the first of every month, to set your goals for the coming month and review how you got on last month.
