2,777,644 Words In Just under Five Years!
I have to say that I am writing this blog post for a bit of fun after reading Roy's blog post which you can see below. Roy has averaged 2582 words per day, which is pretty good!

After reading Roy's post I thought I would check my Grammarly stats. So since first using Grammarly back in March 2016, I have written 2,777,644 words. That comes out at about 1,548 words per day over almost five years. In the past week, I have written 27,426 which averages 3,918 words per day.
Unfortunately, not all these words refer to writing content, I guess that the figures refer to everything that I have written on this computer, including emails and many comments to Wealthy Affiliate members!
Anyway, a bit of slightly useful or maybe useless information, although very fascinating!
Thank you for reading.

Thank you, Roy, I must admit I was surprised how quickly the numbers or the words mount up! Thank you for inspiring me to write the blog post in the first place!
Have a great day.

Super going there Roy! It would be nice if the software could distinguish between content. To alert us to where we could add more focus etc.

Good morning Hugh,
I hope you're doing well. Thank you for responding to my blog post, it's appreciated.
Yes, I hear you, big time! Even just writing comments on this particular blog post, mount up over a period of time. To be able to distinguish would be very useful. However, thinking about it, WordPress does give a word count, so we can see approximately how much we are writing every week or month. Although if we have multiple websites, that gets a bit more complicated!
Have a great day.

Hello Matt,
I hope you're doing well, thank you for responding to my post.
I must admit I was quite surprised by the number of words, it's amazing how they mount up.
Have a great day.

Good morning Simone,
Thank you for responding to my blog post, it's appreciated.
I must admit I was quite surprised myself. I guess Grammarly is probably adding even the words that I am writing in this comment right now. It really is surprising how the words mount up though!
Have a great day.

To put that into perspective, the Encyclopaedia Britannica has around 44,000,000 words. Well, done.
Good morning Jim,
I hope you're doing well, thank you for replying to my blog post, it's appreciated.
Now that's an interesting thought! I don't know if my writing is quite as informative as the Britannica Encyclopaedia! I find it amazing how our words mount up especially as I'm not in front of the computer all day long. I have an off-line business that keeps me fairly busy.
I guess if someone was really dedicated it wouldn't be that difficult to write 44 million words over a relatively short time or maybe within a few years.
Have a great day.
Roy
