My first book is ~ 226k words. My second book is ~ 277k words. And my third book is ~ 226k words and I am nearing the end of this book. 5 or 6 chapters left, maybe. *Two arcs that lead to one another.* With this my first completed trilogy will be around maybe 700k words, maybe more in total. :blob_aww: I have other works with 100kish words or fewer. *Unfinished*

I feel great, knowingly reaching the end of this journey. And I wonder how much have you guys done?:blob_melt: Completed or not.~ Like total word count of all your stories count too.~

Considering I have about maybe 50+stories, some are short and unfinished. While there are also those I never published due to complications and time management.....

Give or take, I probably wrote about 500,000+ or more words in the context of 7-8 years(not gonna count my comic strip).

Two of my series alone are almost 600,000 words. then two more would be about 300,000 words together (they're not done yet). my unpublished works are at least another 500,000 and the two stories I'm publishing here, one is 60k so far and the other is 85k. Yeah... I write a lot

Woot, a fellow with a word count to back it! We just have to express ourselves, don't we? :blob_happy:

Somewhere in the ballpark of 2-3 million words in a bit over two and a half years when including both published and unpublished stuff.

Twelve thousand four hundred and seventy three words in total. That's how one should write instead of 12,473, A trick to reach more words I just learned after reading ya question. Gotta use it from now on

The stuff I write with don’t have word counts. I probably write a total of like 200k I guess

They don't have word counts o-o? Not even on the website? I use the word so I see it there, but the SH website also has a word count on the dashboard.
Though that is a good amount! Be proud! Say 200k! That is more than most people, to be honest! :blob_aww:

The story I'm writing is almost 80k right now. So, probably a total of 160k considering the rewriting.

Hmm, 90k on the main series and like 10k on the other two. I should really get more into it. Where is my 3.5 million words planned 2.2k chapters? In my dreams I guess. :blob_hmm:

406k words of fanfiction.
711k words of fiction.

In total, I have written 1117k, or thousand, words over the course of a decade... well, that's not including everything I've deleted over the years in terms of either category, lmao.

Or better to say, 1 million, 1 hundred and seventeen thousand words.

Oh, congratulations on reaching the finish line! That's so awesome!

Truth be told, I have no idea how much I've written overall but I guess it's ... quite a bit? :blob_blank:

My current main series is at roughly 1.6 million words (in the original version, the revised one has an additional volume and some added chapters so it's longer), the prequel has 250k so far and there's extras to the tune of another 140k. I have another series that's completely finished at about 440k (extras included) with a spin-off series that's another 240k so far but still in the making. Then there's a short story collection of around 75k, another at 49k (but still working on the last two stories), and 48k of assorted short stories. Then I have a couple of standalone novels, being 158k, 94k, 73k, 116k, and 105k (but with an extra pending halfway-finished) respectively. Also, another two series that I am currently writing, one at 416k (slowly closing in on the end there) and the other at 220k. Right now, I'm preparing the next one but I'm only 10k in there. For other projects, I only have some scenes here and there to get a feel for them but they're all for much later when my current stories and others I've planned are done so I'm not counting those.

I also have a second account that's at roughly 130k words right now but I haven't uploaded everything there yet. It shouldn't be much more though. The first novel was 63k, for the second one I'm only 16k in, and the rest are short stories and novellas that currently amount to about 78k. I do have some novels and series lying around under the same name that I wrote some years ago but I still need to translate those to English and brush up on them since they're, well, old. Everything else on either account is from spring 2018 or later so the difference is pretty stark and I wouldn't dare publish them like that. I guess those old ones would come up to a couple hundred k words or maybe a million though?

Expression is key, Blob! :blob_aww:

They all count! Holy! That is so much! :blob_aww:

So many lovely writers with large word counts! Imagination rocks!:blob_happy: *cough, cough* Expressions too! We express ourselves very well!

382k words of one story, 36k words of another story, 22k words of yet another story. Those are the active stories. I'm not including the dropped fan fictions or the original ones on indefinite hiatus or my poetry.

You should include those! they are works on themselves! Even if dropped or hiatus, black holes ate them! <3 I am interested in poetry~ :blob_aww:
