It is not a solution with wc-mode, but maybe this simple function, based on `count-words', can serve you. It counts the words in the buffer excluding all drawers and their contents: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun my-count-words-in-org-buffer () (interactive) (let ((words 0)) (save-excursion (save-restriction (narrow-to-region (point-min) (point-max)) (goto-char (point-min)) (while (forward-word-strictly 1) (if (org-at-drawer-p) (re-search-forward ":END:") (setq words (1+ words)))))) (message "Org buffer has %d word%s." words (if (= words 1) "" "s")))) #+end_src Best regards, Juan Manuel
