Which meant the lunch session hit the ground running. Irritatingly, I hit the end of the session without getting to the end of the scene. Oh well, I know where I'll be starting tomorrow morning.
One of the things that keeps me going is my spreadsheet. I thought I'd share it today.
| Date | Today | Pace | Diff | Pace Total | Actual Total | Total Diff | Remaining |

Date - Obvious
Today - Words written on that particular day
Pace - The 1,667 words you need to hit in order to reach 50,000 words by 30 November
Diff - Today number minus Pace. I color code it so I can get my green streak.
Pace Total - The number you get if you only write 1,667 words each day.
Actual Total - The number of words I actually wrote to date.
Total Diff - Difference between Pace Total and Actual Total
Remaining - How I'm doing relative to 50,000 words
Every addition/subtraction field has the formulas built in. The green and red are conditional formatted based on the number.
This spreadsheet helped me on 7 Nov when I didn't reach the 1,667 for the day, but I knew I was ahead of the pace overall.
