What it is
This is a Word Count and Writing Progress Template in an Excel format, your brand-new writing buddy! This handy spreadsheet has been designed to be super simple, clear to read, and the perfect way to keep track of your book as it grows, one word at a time.
Whether you’re crafting a thrilling YA fantasy, a swoony romance, a heartfelt memoir, or a business book bursting with wisdom, this tracker will help you see your progress take shape right before your eyes.
Think of it as your writing dashboard. It’s your place to keep everything organised, so you can focus on what really matters, which is getting those words on the page!
Why you need it
Writing a book is a big adventure. Some days the words flow like a waterfall, and other days it feels like wading through treacle. By logging your word count, you’re turning the whole process into bite-sized, trackable milestones.
This spreadsheet keeps all your progress in one place, so you can:
. Spot your most productive writing days and times
. See how your project is growing, chapter by chapter
. Stay accountable to your goals without feeling overwhelmed
If you’re juggling more than one project (because writers love a side quest!), you can keep everything neat and organised in one spot. No more losing track of which draft is where. Trust me, future you will thank present you for this!”
How you will benefit from updating it regularly
By adding your numbers into the spreadsheet daily or weekly, you’ll build a beautiful picture of your writing journey over time. Regular tracking keeps your momentum going, helps you celebrate your wins (yes, every 200 words counts!), and gives you that little nudge to keep showing up for your story.
You’ll be able to see your progress in real time and do a happy dance as your total climbs!
Reflect on your writing patterns and make tweaks that actually work for you, and share milestones with writing friends, accountability buddies, or just give yourself a gold star!
The best part? You’ll always know exactly where you are in your book-writing journey, no more guesswork or “I’ll check later.” Consistency means finished drafts, published books, and proud author moments!
This Spreadsheet includes: Title Page, Introduction & Instructions, Book Project Details, one tab per month for 1 year
