Today’s progress:

Project: Shaede line edits.

Pages edited: 33

Total pages: 188

Goal: 337 pages

Writing:

Editing went much better today.  Though my brain still felt exhausted after 30 pages.  I guess the human suit is still recovering, so things might be slow going for a while.

This story is sinking its teeth into me again.  I’m finding myself wanting to go back to the sequel I’ve written, Daemon, which is currently in first draft.  There’s not much point in working on it until I’ve sold this one, though.  Better to work on diversity.

I need to do a post sometime about all of the different novels brewing in my mind.  They seem to be breeding these days.

Real life:

Cleaned the house, did laundry.

Total words for 2009: 0 <— I am beginning to loathe this zero.  Hopefully next week I’ll start generating some words, dammit.  Though technically, I could probably allocate some words for this editing.

I know you're keen on your word counts, but once past first draft it surely doesn't make sense as a measure of progress? Perhaps count by chapter-quarter, story point, or whatever normally makes a good session.

I am stubbornly attached to my word counts :) It just seems the easiest measure of progress for me (though I've been looking at pages edited right now). I used to have a great post by Jay Lake on how he kept track of his progress bookmarked, but I've lost it.
