Author Wordcount
by Scott Grant on WordPress.org
A demonstration of the widget activated on a main page using the Writr theme. There are two pieces of writing in progress, and the progress bar is filled in to represent how much work is done and how much remains.
Author Wordcount is a simple tool that allows you to enter the title of
a work-in-progress (I’m looking at you, NaNoWriMo draft), a current word
count, and a goal word count. These counters can be updated when you have
new words available, and can be deleted when you’re finished. You can have
any number of works in progress at a time, since if you’re like me, you’ve
probably got a huge collection of drafts just waiting to be finished.
The style is based on an old component that used to sit on the sidebar of
Hugh Howey’s website. Thanks, Hugh!
