StoryADay
Julie Duffy
Writers write. Professional writers write a lot. The StoryADay May challenge exists to help you learn how much you're capable of writing in a month. The Write Every Day, Not "Some Day" podcast helps you figure out how to keep that commitment up for the rest of your life. Each 10-15 minute episode tackles a particular topic and gives you a writing assignment to complete before the next episode.

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.
