There’s a handy little thing called Project Targets that I’ve fallen in love with, and is perfectly suited for writing to a deadline. I can say which days I want to write (fancy that, taking a day off), and when I want to be at my target word count and it figures out (because math is hard) to tell me how many words I need to write per session — or day — to reach that goal.
When on a deadline
I always track word count
It keeps me on target
