How many pages did you get done today...

Myself, I got three plus a proof read which I always [sic] desperatly need. Anyway, nothin' better than a good day with a nice page count or a tricky scene mastered. What did you do today?

I try to write 10 pages/day. In fact I consider that good for me. Recently though, I've talked to some semi-pro writers and they write almost 8-10hrs/day.... makes me feel like a real loser.

All I did today was jot down a few ideas for my next script. I don't set myself daily page quotas. Instead, when I have an idea for a script, I just rip into it and write it in a short period of time and then refine it. But having a productive day of writing is very satisfying.

I did a lot of revising today and probably added about ten more pages which is pretty productive for me, I always get so distracted!

I haven't written anything in about a month or so.

I get distracted pretty easily. I've written less than 10 pgs. total in the last 3 days.

The only time I've written more than ten pages in one day was in an unexpected bout of passion when I wrote Insanity Outcome back in 2006. Other than that, I've always worked slowly. Bit by bit. It's frustrating.

Depends on what mood I'm in. I can easily do ten pages but I can just as easy only do ten words. I don't have any min. page requirements set for myself - to me, that would totally take away the fun of it and make it a chore. If it's a chore then I might as well...vacuum.

I can usually do around 10-15 pages if necessary, but I'm like Sniper. Different days have different outputs.

It all depends on what I'm working on. A 1st draft script is a lot easier than a 2nd draft or 3rd draft.

Yesterday I only got a few lines done.  Not very productive.  I havn't had a really productive bout of writing in quite some time actually.  When It does happen though, It's highly satisfying!
