Writing Log
Creativeweight 1tracker · keeps what you put in
The novel is either going well or it isn't, and without numbers it's mostly mood. The Writing Log keeps each piece on record — what it is, the word count, and a box for the draft and your notes — so progress becomes something you can point at on the bad days.
This is not a screenshot. It's the real tool, running right here — go on, put something in it.

Questions people ask
How do I track my writing word count across projects?
Each piece gets an entry: its name, the current word count, and a text box for the draft itself or notes about it. Updating the number is the small ritual that keeps the work honest.
Is my writing private in this tool?
Yes, entirely. The Writing Log is a single HTML file that runs offline in your browser — no cloud, no account, nothing leaves the page. Your terrible first draft stays gloriously unwitnessed.
Is this for novelists, bloggers, or students?
Anyone who writes and wants to see the pile grow. It doesn't care whether the words are a thesis or fan fiction; it just keeps the count and the notes.
