When I started writing I came up with list of my favourite words. I wanted to implement them some way so that future students of my oeuvre would discuss and debate their significance.
The realisation that my ego far out reached my ability meant such literary nuance was like to go unappreciated. Recognising who my target audience were, I decided to keep my work simple, (I jest, and I love you all really.)
This left me with a lexicon of words and no magna opera in which to strategically place them. So instead of letting my bon mots go to waste, I decided that I would take inspiration from the list. At the top of each of my blog posts there is a title. Most of these titles are words from my original collection.
It’s true. I didn’t come up with witty but relevant titles based on the tales that flow from my fingertips. In fact it is quite the opposite. When I struggled to find any kind of topic, I would look up my list. Semolina, Scrivener, Jingoistic, Sandwich and Milliner. Everyone a word I like that spawned some sort of article.
Like all good things, my list has reached its end, but fear not. I am like The Simpsons, just because I’ve run out of my original inspiration and clever ideas, it doesn’t mean I am going to stop. No I’ll keep churning out the stuff whether you like it or not.
I do however need some sort of organisation. I can’t just go off half cocked. No, in order to insure I have something to work with, from this point on I am going to title my blogs from A-Z. How exciting is that people. Don’t feel great about it? Fair enough. Maybe this video might change your mind.
