Now that I've met my required word count and can post on this thread without having to deal with the shame and humiliation of not being up to snuff, I may as well jump into the conversations of the last few pages.
Mean MLs/chatrooms: I wasn't kicked, but god knows I deserved it.
Descry: I find it odd that I've been reading The Lord of the Rings for the last few months and never bothered to look that word up.
Reaching ten thousand: I actually finished a paragraph at 10,005 words, though this number was conspicuously one word less than Kingryan, so stopping then seemed like admitting defeat. I wrote another (short) paragraph.
Prizes: My only prize is not being laughed at by my peers and getting to play some video games. I guess that works because I never really liked candy.
