NaNoWriMo word tracker spreadsheets

Word tracking spreadsheets for National Novel Writing Month 2016. I make new ones every year, and this page will be updated when I do.

Every file contains a word tracker as well as additional sheets for plotting, character development, and keeping track of your progress, chapters, and characters. New for 2016: a timeline sheet to help keep track of events, scenes, and characters!

There are a ton of different designs, and instructions are included. You’re welcome to edit and share them, but please don’t use the images for anything else. They’re all made with my own artwork, so please respect copyright and all that.

They’re free to use and share – they’re hosted on Gumroad now, but you can just put in “0” in the price field if you don’t want to pay and you won’t be asked for any payment info! If you want to give back, please consider checking out my art shop or sharing the link to this page with others who might be interested. You can also make a donation using the buttons at the bottom of the page!

 There’s also one spreadsheet that lets you fill in your total wordcount and calculates your daily amount etc from that, but I only made that in one design. If you want it in a different design, you can always adapt one of the others.

I do take requests for custom designs. But every hour I spend on these is an hour I should really be spending on my actual work, so I give preference to folks who donate. Either way, though, request away!

Troubleshooting

• I’ve found a bug in the code.
  Please contact me and I’ll fix it!
• Can you make a version that’ll work on a Mac?
  No.
• I don’t know how to use Excel.
  Google.
• I edited stuff I shouldn’t have and now it’s broken, help!
  Re-download and start over.
• Can you make a version that people can view my blog?
  It’s an Excel file, so no. If you want to share your progress, there’s a thing for that here.

If you’re looking for a year-round tracker, or one that works for months other than November, or one that works for several months at a time, check out my year-round word trackers. New versions for the coming year are posted every December.
