Good Morning Everyone. I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas (if you were celebrating and if not then a wonderful weekend). As always I ate too much, and laughed just the right amount. Which was nice for me, if not my waistline. But that is a New Year Me problem. For now, let’s jump into the the last Five Word Challenge of the Year. As always there are five words. The goal is to use them in one piece of writing, whatever that writing is. I have added some definitions of the words (but by no means all of the definitions of each word) below to spark thoughts as you get startd. As always, happy writing.
