5 million. No, those five million words aren’t often a story, they’re often just the day-to-day blather of someone just trying to get his word count higher, or the somewhat incoherent ramblings brought on by trying to make sense of my day, or venting about the day. But, somehow, over these past ten-ish years, I’ve managed to string together what would be the equivalent of 100 NaNoWriMo novels. Thank you, Buster and Kellianne, for giving me the room in which to do so. I hope I grow in the future, and I hope that 750 words is right there with me to help me grow further.

Today I reached my 1724th day in a row. This website has helped me when I’ve needed to write a story, needed to rant or get the word count done for NaNoWriMo. When I’ve needed to get something off my chest, it’s been a listening ear and I wouldn’t be without it. Here’s to another four and a half years. Thank you 750 words. xxxx

I fail a lot. I don’t make it every day, or even most days anymore. But that is okay. The point is to train yourself to think a certain way, to express yourself, to process your feelings. This site has helped so much with that, and still it is a safe place for my most complicated, tangled thoughts. The badges and the stats are so helpful, they keep you going. In the beginning. But after a while, you have to let them go. Life changes. It sweeps you on to newer, different, time consuming, and sometimes wordless things. And that is also good. Thank you for being there when I needed you 750, and thanks for being what I need you to be when I don’t.
