Just topped the 10k number and I see I'm only, oh, what, one-eighth of the way to where you are? Sheesh. I'm not even totally caught up to where I should be for the 50k let alone anything else...

And GG is right: feed those starving typing monkeys!!! They deserve it! :)

Charlie, you are my light and inspiration. But I say you need to do another 86K, you CAN'T be done yet. Or maybe I could borrow, say, twenty thousand words? You don't need them. I'm sure I can fit them into my story somehow, maybe: "Jared fell asleep and dreamed that (Insert your 20k). Maybe not.

And I'm still trying to figure out what my protagonist is doing in the backwaters of India. Who is John Galt?
