Ahhhhhh! ... well, in that case, yeah, I would say it does count. XD Mine, prooooobably not so much, oh well.

TODAY IS A NEW DAY, I can only improve. o/

I've sorta stopped tracking wordcount and "what counts and what doesn't count" as closely as I used to (which is also why I stopped posting or keeping up with metric posts), because I found all that time I spent compiling numbers, and deciding what counted and what didn't count... I could have spent writing :)

Yeah, I worked a little bit on the fic this morning, but since it involved cropping and editing things I'd already written, I don't know how to count it. So I'll just do a handwaving guess; it doesn't matter how many words if I feel good about the progress I make.

Of course, I could actually finish the fic today, and get my sense of accomplishment from that - though, as I have designated tonight Tax Night, we'll see if that happens.

If you must quantify (and I understand the desire to), I would try to consider "how many words would I have written, if I were writing during this session?" and mark that as your guestimate (and maybe color code it different or something). Editing is another animal, and I've never found a good way to quantify it. You can do pages/wordcount (edit 2000 words), but if you have an easy amount of pages, that's different than 20 pages that needs to be rewritten from scratch.

Just one of my many issues with revising ;)
