Congratulations to everyone when you get this far. Lawd knows it's not easy. But we're just about at the point where things start to feel easy, so look forward to 30,000, which in my experience is the least rough part of this adventure.
*Ahem*
My 20,000th word is: beginning

20,000th word is "I" oddly enough!
The next mark will be much simpler.

My 20,000th word is "Kentucky's", which is at least interesting, though I considered trying to subtract a word back a few paragraphs because my 20,001st word was "terroir" which is a pretty cool word.

Okay, so since I missed 20,000 I have to post 25,000 because it makes me giggle.
My 25,000th word is....dirty!
That's right, it's a dirty word,
I think I can sleep peacefully now.

FINALLY! 20,058 words. I had to get up and do a dance. It was necessary.
I went back and added more words because the three paragraphs leading up to 20k were rather dull. First time around, the word was 'them'. Second time, it was 'his'. Third and finally, my twenty housandth word is 'turned.'
It's a little better then my other one. =D
