It’s time for those retrospective things. I figured I’d start with some publishing numbers. Numbers of books sold and monies won’t be available for quite some time.

This was a good year for Knotted Road Press, my publishing company. Here are my year end numbers:

11 POD
12 short stories
3 collections
3 novels

Total titles: 18
Total published: 29

I count POD in addition to titles, though strictly speaking it’s the same title, published twice. However, the POD version always takes more work.

I wrote a total of 16 short stories in 2012. Some of these won’t be published until next year. Some may come out as part of “The Guardian Hound” first — I don’t know yet.

I don’t know what my total word count for the year is either. As I plan on writing a lot this week, I’m optimistic about pushing the average daily word count up for the year. Currently it’s at 514 words per day. If I do 10,000 words this week of the novel, that will push it up to 542 words per day for the year. Wish me luck!
