I'm on a roll (no, not the eating kind). I asked someone to nag me about getting my daily word count in and it's been working. I get 1 day off a week, usually on the weekend (and this week's was yesterday), but as of today I am 5 thousand words into a 10-thousand word target outline for Dark Horizons, a new WIP. When I'm done with that outline I intend to apply the same technique to Hivers, Gated, Third Pulse: Book 2, and Fire On The Suns: Book 2 to get those books outlined, raise my daily target, possibly, and get going on writing those books. Uncle Jim says it's possible to use the outlines to write 10 pages a day and finish a novel in a month. I'm determined to apply the method and find out.
Hmmm, 300 pages x 250-words/page = 75 thousand words. 2500 words/250 = 10 pages.
That's short, but respectable, and with some padding out and rewriting will almost certainly hit 80-85 thousand words.
85000/250 = 340 pages/30 = 11.33 pages/day which is certainly doable. That's only 2833 words/day and I'm doing a grand a day in less than 30 minutes so, basically, an hour and a half a day once the novel actually gets rolling.
Most pros could write 3 thousand words a day in their sleep (I did it for Survival which was written in 3 days time).
