Bragging rights galore



Yup. I stuck with it, and churned out text without stopping to worry about quality. Quality is for later. So I am the proud winner of bragging rights galore, along with the proud owner of more than 50,000 words of text that can be the foundation for the rest of this immense thing I'm calling my novel.

You'll notice how it was easy for me to hit 50,000 words without finishing, given that it's taking me this many words just to say that I finished it. Ah well, there are few times in this world when verbosity is its own reward.

Congratulations! I hope you're able to turn it into the novel that you want/need to write.

Yay! By my reckoning it's Nic who gets the spanking?

I'll give you a run for your words next year - just wait.

I want a signed copy when it's published!

I think you’re right, very right! Sounds like we’re in similar spots. I think it’s the best of both worlds, in many ways.

Ok, so, I'm sure no one will read this at this point, but I have to ask...

What happened? Where did everyone go? I don't know how to put this without it sounding weird, but it's so fascinating to me. There was once a thriving community with a very active founder, between this site, TTWD, JA, etc. But now, the latest word is this comment from gill in 2018, and before that Unknown in 2015, five and a half years after the prior post here. The last thing I can find from Jigsaw Analogy was from Jun 20, 2012 over on TTWD. It feels like I've stumbled across a long-lost civilization, and I'm at a loss.

I guess my question is just, what happened to everybody? You seem to have vanished without a word.

Sorry if this is weird, this kind of thig just blows my mind. That someone can seemingly vanish from the internet, much less an entire group of people. Unless of course I'm just missing something and you're all somewhere new. Then I'll just feel silly...

If anybody reads this, I'd love any feedback you're willing to give.
Thanks.
