As of right now (and I haven’t written anything yet today), the stats are:
Words written on 26 Nov 2016: 2,016
Words written overall for November 2016: 50,121
Total length of manuscript to date: 119,579.
Apparently, this works out to an average for November so far of 1,856 words a day (counting today, when I haven’t written a damn thing).
Well, back to the salt mines…
PS — Yesterday’s excitement, besides a good visit to the National Museum of African-American History, was that an elderly Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) did in fact interrupt itself, somehow overloading with no load, blowing a fuse in our Universal Transfer Switch (which would automatically switch to backup power if need be) which knocked out the internet and left an alarming burning smell. It’s been a good month for bizarre techno-failures. I need to go order fuses… and a new UPS.
