I found an easy to use - handy dandy word count meter for anyone who is interested in using a meter for their inkingitout  updates.

It didn't work for me in a comment either. Must be something in the coding, but it is cool to use when posting your weekly word count (if you feel inclined). I like posting mine for accountability purposes.

Yeap, that's my actual count. But don't feel too intimidated, I feel my motivation waning already.

I may be in need of cheerleaders soon. I am feeling the winter doldrums or maybe it's the weeks of repeats of NCIS affecting me. I need 02/07 to get here quickly.

Sad, really, how I wish my life away.....

I've created a permanent post at the top of my journal (right under the master fic post) to store my word count updates. It won't show up on your reading page because I used the "date out of order" function to keep it at the top, and apparently that excludes it from being seen by others on their reading page. But it's there for me to be accountable to myself (and anyone else who ventures over onto my journal, naturally).

Actually, I have a feeling that I haven't properly accounted for all my words this month - I'm going to go back over everything tomorrow and double-check the definitions and rules. For example, I didn't count the two "bad fics" I wrote for ncis_verse but they may in fact count.

I also snagged the word count excel spreadsheet that was linked on the site you referenced - I like it better than the one they gave us on GetYourWordsOut. It's cleaner and simpler to use.

Never fear, hon, I will cheer you on. And to kick-start that process...I will mention that Strange Bedfellows is still sitting out there in cyberspace, and I wanna know what Trent Kort's gonna do next, so hop to it, m'lady!!

And yes, stop wishing your life away. Trust me, the older you get, the more you'll wish you hadn't...
