It's so much worse to write that as 5% done . . .
I probably want to mix it up more with other types of writing in the future, but I am currently just reading away at whatever I want in Spanish Wikipedia. It's really enjoyable to the point of addictive. I also keep a much more accurate count by copying what I read over into a open office document, and just run a word-count. When I read physical books, I am just estimating.
