Hello.

Welcome, this is a collection of things to remember and things to inform current projects.

And it’s a space to allow ideas to cross pollinate and co-mingle.

I hope you’ll find something to take with you that provokes or incites or coaxes you in the direction you’re trying to go. Or maybe you’ll find something simply causes you stop and mull. That would be good too.

Thanks for being here.

Words Worth Using

Words Worth Using

Kristin Hatcher

Art of Memoir is a flashlight under the covers read. I nearly pulled an all nighter because I couldn’t put it down.

Then I pumped the brakes on the back half when I realized how fast the pages were flying by and how sad I was going to be when the book came to the end.

In an effort to slow down, preserve the experience, and document my awe, I made a list of words from the book that I would like to use in a sentence. There were so many good ones.

Would you like to join me in this writing exercise? Here are the words: 

  • Lasso

  • Hogties 

  • Imbibing 

  • Nattering

  • Parceled out

  • Playpen

  • “Savagely un-“

  • Lodestar 

  • Waylaid

  • Unbidden

  • Agog

  • Vexed

  • Ersatz

  • Stultifying

  • Voltage

  • Immoderate

  • Puckish

  • Permutation

  • Innards

  • I’d hazard that...

  • Pogoing

  • Drivel

  • Sizzled

  • Panache

  • Portal

  • Lineaments 

  • Ferocity

  • Thunderclap

  • Scuttling

  • Actively ludicrous
