Where Do Our Pencils Go?

Where did it go? That is what I am always saying about my pencil. That is also what this story is all about.

When you lose a pencil, where does it go? Most people would say that it goes wherever you lost it at, but I know that's not true. When you lose a pencil, it goes to WriteLand.

When a pencil goes to WriteLand, they can't just stay there however long they want. There is a 5-month limit for normal pencils and a 2-week limit for special pencils (such as mechanical pencils). This is because normal pencils can be switched out for each other, while special pencils can only go back to the same person.

What do pencils do while they are in WriteLand? Some pencils decide to take a vacation, while others want to have fun with other pencils. Others go to the doctor to get new erasers. When pencils get together, it is a very silent group, because pencils can't talk. All of the ground in WriteLand is paper that gets switched out hourly. When their time in WriteLand is up, the pencil goes down a magical tube and lands somewhere that it is needed.

The best way to stop a pencil from going to WriteLand is to keep it by you all the time, but since that is really hard, why not let a pencil have a vacation once and a while?

P.S. This was not written using a pencil.
