One of the things people enjoy doing on Twitter is celebrating milestones. Follower milestones are a huge thing but a lesser thing are the number of tweets you have. This morning, I noticed that I was only 5 tweets away from my 10,000th tweet.

Now, it may be silly, but I felt the need to make it something memorable. But, of course, as soon as I thought that, I was overcome with crippling tweeter’s block. When you look at the screenshot below, you’ll notice it too me 20 minutes to stop spazzing enough to actual write my 10,000th tweet.

So I finally just tweeted something I said to my parents the other day after I saw The Muppets in theatres as my 10,000th tweet and it was immediately retweeted by someone which made me feel validated as a human. In case you were wondering, my 10,000th tweet was:

The Muppets have a new movie, My Little Pony & TMNT are popular again… I hope you’re all enjoying this world I created with MY MIND!

And one that’s a parody of the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Tolerate and Love meme which I cannot find anywhere to link to that is not horrible so here’s the Google results for it if you aren’t familiar.

I don’t really like this one but there are so few of these I wanted to share it as well:

I also found this one which is a little hard to read.

I want to credit that one but the font is so small I can’t even read the URL in the watermark.

Anyway, I was hoping that there would be more images out there so I turn to you. Have you found or created an inspirational NaNoWriMo related image that you’d be willing to share? You can either upload it in the comments, link to it below or submit it over on Words Count. I’d love to feature it on both blogs!

Don’t read all the sites I blog for? Here’s what you missed in the last week outside of HillaryDePiano.com.

  Sometimes I talk in general terms on this blog but every now and then I like to just lay my cards on the table and be completely transparent and tell you the specifics of an experience that happened to me and my company. It’s one thing to talk about eBooks outselling printed books but I [...]
• With so many e-commerce platforms and tools out there, why is eBay your marketplace of choice?
  At the eBay On Location in Orlando, FL, I submitted a question for Griff Seller’s Panel that actually ended up being the one they ended on. I asked of the sellers on the panel: “With so many e-commerce platforms and tools out there, why is eBay your marketplace of choice?” The sellers mostly used this [...]
