I added up the word counts for the various biographical pieces I've been writing in preparation for my book and I've written 27,775 words already!

I used to be daunted by the idea of writing a whole book, but looking at the 5748 posts I've made at my forum and the many long posts I've written here, I really don't have a problem coming up with lots of material. It's mainly a matter of organizing and revising the material once I've written it.
