I need a good word meter

[dragovianknight]

Or, well, rather, a hat meter. Because what 2010 was missing - and 2011 should not lack - is a Hundred Hat project. So, let 2011 feature The Hundred Hat Project 2 - Acrylic Boogaloo.

Also, I take back my last post re: Castle. There is one story I want. I want one where Castle gets shot - not badly, just enough to get him started in on how if he'd known how much it hurt he'd have written the Derrick Storm novels differently, and Beckett to wonder if he's babbling because he's going into shock or babbling because he's Castle - and Beckett is Totally Not Worried (Not Worried enough that at one point she calls him Rick while they're waiting for the ambulance; Not Worried enough that she's still hanging around the hospital when Alexis and Martha get there, that flavor of Not Worried). And afterwards Castle is a bit gunshy and takes things more seriously, and Beckett realizes that non-irritating Castle is kind of...irritating. And meanwhile they solve a case and *handwave handwave* things get back to the status quo. Please feel free to point me at this story or, you know, write it. Because the world needs more mildly angsty Castle casefic.

Yay 100 hats! That's such a cool project. :)

Also, "Acrylic Boogaloo" cracked me up.

You know, most of those wordmeters let you enter your intended word count and your current. You could just repurpose it to a 100 hat-count meter.

I actually did find a nice generic progress meter here that let me customize size and colors and doesn't say "words" anywhere. So I stuck it in my sidebar.
