The chronicles word counter!

My book is 12,000 words after a rewrite, not counting all the snippets I wrote on my tablet. Working away.
 
The Many - Start date January 2012
This is now 22/07/2012 - 28,800 still stalled and waiting on lots of editing and restructuring - still just sitting and waiting.

Culture Shock - Start date May 2012
22/07/2012 – 29,000

Not so much this week, been doing some editing as well.
 
MC2: HKV
epic fantasy sequel
78k and rising
who needs 1 dragon when you can have 3, eh?

ED4: The Packard Defence
ongoing unrealistic sf serial/series
14k and rising slowly (target 50k)
gathering pieces together for a break-in, a battle, a chase, and another break-in.
 
The Abendau stuff is all pretty much were it was - sequel being worked on from feedback.

The dome, now called Inish Carraig (w/t for now), up to 6400 words, prologue done, first 20000 or so planned out, the back story worked out, and various plot lines falling into place in my mind. (You win, M. le docteur...:p)
 
TBM is about 48/49k. Can't remember exactly as I've had to shut the file as I can't concentrate because of the s^s*s%jnd neighbours and their j!ng*r noise.
 
Inish carraig, up to 10900 words, very, very rough, but I'm starting to get a sense of the two key characters, finding their voice, and now I need to sit with a file block and figure out the strands. I'm kind of relieved that I'm starting to get the feel of it.
 
I just crossed the 20k line. Feel pretty good about, story coming along nicely. Have averaged 3k the last couple of days. I hope I can keep it up the next couple of days. I am aiming for the 1st draft to be done by the end of August. Roughly 30k more, if I had to guess.
 
Posting cos I'm at a milestone. TBM is at dun dun duuuuun 50,499 words! Yay! (315 of those are notes, so I'm still just over 50k).

Spent all of today (apart from when I was at work, then when I was putting doors on a wardrobe) writing a 600 word sex scene and researching Mozart and street names for drugs.

Culture Shock - Start date May 2012
30/07/2012 – 30,000

Not so much this week, been doing some more editing. I've got over my editing block I had when I first joined Chrons, it's now a big part of my writing.
 
I, Singularity is now 30,093 including notes. The Muse seems determined to tease and torment me over the Terry Pratchett First Novel Contest, by giving me inspiration that will disqualify me.
