Morning all, jury duty done and a normal schedule has resumed. More or less. I now feel very much behind on well, everything, but that can’t actually be helped. So we will set the feeling aside and jump into the morning writing exercise. It is Monday and so we have the five word challenge. As always the goal is to use all five words in a piece of writing, it doesn’t matter what type. Just use all the words. It is meant to stretch the vocab and maybe get you to think about the words you are using in different ways. While I will be posting the definitions below to spark ideas, feel free to use the words however your brain can twist them. And with that…
