I after counting the words written at school today, I was at 20802 words. And the next time I checked, I was at 21012. Two palindromes in one day! Anyone else got such pretty numbers?

Lucky you for two in one day! I have been hoping I'd do a word count check on a palindromic number at some point--finally just did. 26362.

I was at 34343 earlier, but not able to find the thread. When I did, I was at 34562 words, so I reformulated the last sentence to get to this number ;)

I again kept writing and changed my wording until I had a nice number (35053). This thread is very motivating!

Right now I have a recorded 29092. I was just about to update my word count (I have word count ADD; I have to update it every few minutes or I get nervous about nothing), but decided I could try to wait it out at a pretty number.

Shout out for 31313 words!

A couple years ago, I won with 50505 words. I could have done more, but the palindrome was so pretty, I left it at that.

I happened on 26262 earlier today. (The previous cool number was 23456, not palindromic but still worth a shout-out.) Both completely by accident :)

25852! Yay for pretty palindromes! I had to add a palindrome sentence to get this word count! (the sentence was: Rats live on no evil star.)

Palindromes rock!

Got 55,055 myself, such a neat number, was tempted to go for another 500 to get 55,555, but knew the chances of my catching something that neat was slim.

I was looking at this thread just yesterday thinking it was the coolest thing, but getting all sad cuz i though the odds of me taking a break on a palindrome were incredibly slim (and of course i didn't want to cheat)

Then a start typing today and low and behold, just when i'm ready to take a break, there I stand at 19191... awesomeness!

Well, you are about to start the greatest improvisation of all. With no script. No idea what's going to happen, often with people and places you have never seen before. And you are not in control. So say "yes".

At this exact moment, I have 25017. I have to write at least 5001 words by tonight to catch up, since I accidentally skipped writing last night and the night before. Yay me! Three days worth of writing (hopefully...) in one night!
Too bad I can't do that unless I am three days behind at the same time. T_T
