TOP EGG: Currently 150,000 words and counting. I wrote the original version of Chapter #4 in fifteen days and it had 53,000 words (I went back and added another 7,000 words to make it 60,000).

Ten Years I Love About You: Currently 172,473 words. I'm in the process of editing Chapter #7, which is 34,515 words, but will undoubtedly grow as I go through the chapter and check for typos and wonky wording.
I feel so pathetic, I post like 1 chapter per week and they’re like 1-2 thousand words each, is writing your job or a side hobby for you? But seriously that is insane

TWIN!? I’m literally the same. There’s no shame in that though! As long as you’re having fun then do it :)
Yeah, maybe, but I am tired. I am so tired.
Hey you‘ve got this okay? You’ve done so well so far. Hoping for the best for you <3

Not enough according to Pocket FM - they really want 10 chapters (of 1k to 5k words, with the ideal in the 1.5k- 2.5k range) a week. I'm doing about 11... between two stories (was managing six to seven when only working on one)...

I decided to rewrite my novel in April. So, right now I am almost halfway through my book and that's 60k words. 80k words more to go i guess.

Honestly, I have no idea...

This year, according to SH : 350,501
If I add my other published works I think I might reach 750,000 but it's without counting my unpublished works, the ones I wrote then deleted, those I lost to time, the ones from so far ago that I didn't record the word count since they exist on handwritten notes before being sent to the publisher, etc...

It's very vague to ask only a word count

I hope you achieve your dreams and become one of the best authors out there :)
Sorry for the late reply! I write as a hobby. I'm currently unemployed and taking care of an elderly relative, so when I'm not busy with that or I'm not distracted by my ADHD, I like to write. When I'm in the zone, I can write 3,000-6,000 in, like, a day? Or four hours? Hard to tell sometimes. I once wrote a 53,000 word chapter in just fifteen days. A few months later I went back and added 7,000 words to that chapter, so it's currently 60,000 words.
60,000 IN ONE CHAPTER!? I’m speechless. Also hey, you’re doing awesome. I hope your relative stays in good shape under your care <3
-200,000+ published here.
Negative or positive? I’m confused

ALL THAT AND IT’S NOT ENOUGH!?

Woah there! So you’re an OG writer huh? I admire that ?
My SH account was created on August 11, 2021. Wow, that's been a long time for me. About the same time, I started college and learned despair.
Did you just say the C word!? Haha! College is no joke, I’m so proud of you for managing time to write too. You’re awesome ?
