Interesting to know that you've 1000 stories,
The site as a whole has over 21,000 stories (well entries, including songs, poems, etc). This milestone is for commenting on *other* people's stories, so all 21,000 are available, except, in Goodgulf's case, the 253 items that he is the author of (many of them very good, too, in my view.)
Congrats, Goodgulf.
