You'd have to take editing into account. By any reasonable account, I saw a page that discussed it once, to have 100 readable words, you'd need to write 500-1000 words. Which means the time required goes to 5-10x. On the other hand, 200 words per day is pretty low, you could easily get up to 500-1000 words per day once you really get going.

- Rainymood 8y agoI think the idea behind the 200 words is that it is achieveable, once you hit the 200 you're already in the zone, the ball is rolling, you can easily continue. But getting there is the hard part.
- basilesamel 8y agoThank you! Exactly what I'm describing in the article: 200 words give you momentum. I end up with double this word count in average.
- louhike 8y ago200 words is great for people doing it on the side of a full-time job so I think it really depends on your situation.
