Miscount
So, um. I've been thinking almost since I started that my handwriting on my actual NaNo work so far looks smaller/denser than it did on my test page. With that in mind, I decided to do a words-per-line recount this morning, just in case.
It turns out that I was right, and I'm writing more words-per-page than I thought I was.
Test WPL: 10 (mode, assumed mean)
Test WPP: 290 (WPL * Lines Per Page (29))
Actual WPL: 13 (mode, assumed mean)
Actual WPP: 377
So yeah. That's a good eighty-seven more words per page than I thought I was writing. And since I wrote about five and a quarter pages yesterday...
5.25 x 377 = 1979
Holy crap, I almost made my personal per-day goal of 2000 after all; and 1979 is totes close enough to round up, so! Go, me!
