My slow months are the same as in the past.
Over the entire time I’ve been tracking, January, December, and June are my worst for word count, and even though 2019 numbers are just a little different, the pattern held. Early and late year months are off, and the middle of the year dip extended into July.
Otherwise, I’m not too disappointed with 2019. It ended up my third best year for word count.
