Daily #WordcountCheck:

Time for an update! Currently at 86,005, down from 98K. Only 8k to meet my goal.

I still have 12 chapters to go. That's about 650 words to cut per chapter. (I have been averaging at least that so far.)

Wish me luck!

Time for an update! Currently at 89,338.

I only cut 422 words today.

I'm hoping to get back on track this week. My original goal was to cut 600 per day, but I've proven I can do twice that. Must. Keep. Going.

Time for an update! Currently 89,760, down from 98k

I've been slow this week (spring break shook things up a bit).

1660 words cut since Monday. Not my best, but it's progress.

Anyone else off target for spring break?

I don't dare send this MS to my agent @charmstrong.bsky.social until it's slashed & pretty. IYKYK

Update from yesterday. I'm at 93,007. My end goal is 78k.

I cut 1111 words yesterday 💪 I'm up to chapter 8 and have consistently been able to cut 20% of each chapter.

Am I an overwriter? Yes.

Do you overwrite or underwrite?
