A to Z Blog Challenge: D

D is for Decry - verb. Publicly declare something to be wrong or bad.

A to Z Blog Challenge: A

A is for Aphorism - noun. A short clever phrase which makes a true point.
My example: The hourglass drops the seconds one grain at a time.
Perhaps not the cleverest. Can you think of a better example?

A to Z Blog Challenge 2016

www.a-to-zchallenge.comI didn't plan on doing another Blog Challenge at the same time as Camp NaNoWriMo, but alas here I am again, unable to resist the difficulties of blogging every day and writing a story every day, for a month. Although I try to write every day, I don't blog every day. Now I am going to do both. So April, here we come - the authors and bloggers...let the games begin!

For my challenge this year, I chose - words. Random words (that I didn't know) picked from my trusty Oxford...
