It also has a daily writing stats page, which is the home page. As you can see, I’ve uh...been a bit busy the past twenty four hours.

There’s also a project manager. It lets you fill in tasks, check them off, and will track your time on that project, as long as you remember to turn on the time tracking feature in the document you’re working on. When you create a document, you can tie it to a project.

There’s a Task manager, but I don’t have any current tasks from projects, because I’ve been working on largely solo pieces. I might add the Opera Omnia titled set as a project, just to make it overall accessible. But this page is blank for me right now, so sorry!

Also blank is my Client Orders page, because I haven’t felt like I have enough non-fiction or technical works to try and take jobs or garner clients from the sites this place draws from. Yet.

The overall documents page is pretty straightforward. It’s a lot like GDocs when list/detail view is active. And yes, I kinda write a lot, now a days.

The actual document editor looks like this. Purple highlight means the word might weaken meaning. Blue are words that can be simplified. Aqua are phrases that are too wordy. Yellow is spelling, and the damn thing doesn’t let you set your preferred language anywhere, nor add to the dictionary, so it yells a lot about game specific terms, and over the Queen’s English. Light green are weasel words, dark green is grammar. Light yellow means the word is a type of non-conformance, which is technically an extension of spelling. Sepia means you’re using a passive voice, and should change it.

The other thing here I use a lot of is the actual Stats page. It’s pretty beefy, and provides a lot of quantifiable metrics, and can also show your general progress. Part of me is both delighted and horrified I’ve spent nearly 11 hours writing since I got this back on 7 November. Part of me is also horrified that I’ve typed 355,034 characters since then.

I really should update my goals page. I had no idea how many words I wrote per story on average, so I went for 1000 words per day, but I break 2000 all the damn time. That’s a general WPD tracker, you can make them for specific projects too, and it’ll get saved to the project listing.
