This is a simple mode that lets you set a number of words you would like to write in the current Emacs buffer and periodically indicates how well you are doing. It congratulates you when you reach your goal.
The only fancy feature is that the count is keeps track of the countdown by buffer, so you can have multiple goals running simultaneously if you would like to challenge yourself.
You can use wwg-mode to set your own goal, it defaults to 1000 words
if you don’t input a number (as Walter Mosley would suggest).

You can setup this package by:
(add-to-list 'load-path "<your-path>/writer-word-goals")
(require 'wwg)Or if you use use-package:
(use-package wwg
:load-path "<your-path>/writer-word-goals")
