Discussion: Do you have a preferred word count to work towards?

I try to aim for around 2000 words but there are days when 100 words is all that happens.

Editing my exchange fic and reading my notes for my big bang fic.

Word counts stress me out. I'm doing my best, no matter the count.

My goal is to write 500 words daily. I usually aim for 1500 to 2000, but if I only manage 500 words, that is fine. That doesn't mean they are quality words that end up getting published, but words are words and they will eventually become good words I can use.

Still planning (and enjoying it, maybe too much ^^;;); I'll try to finish this ASAP so I can start writing again.

500 words a day is a sensible minimum in theory; in practice my output is variable at best. I tend to write more when the scenes are clearer in my head, though.
