Permalinks to this entry: individual page or in monthly context. For more material from my journal, visit my home page or the archive.
According to my site statistics, penmachine.com comprises 366 Web pages, and contains 273,301 words. By word count, that's the length of about four typical novels.
The oldest material written for the site is from the spring of 1997, about six years ago. (There are older things, but they're converted from the pre-Web days.) That puts me at about 125 words per day, on average—half a normal printed page. However, the overwhelming majority of the words on this site have appeared since late 2000, when I started this journal, so I've really been averaging about 300 words a day, every day, for two and a half years—entirely aside from anything I've actually written to make a living.
