Words, Words, Words<\/h2>\n

Do you have favorite words? If you do, pause right now and jot them down.<\/p>\n

I love to collect words I hear or read that are unfamiliar or that have an interesting sound. I try to remember to write them down to use another day. As you go through your day, pay attention to words that you like the sound or meaning of. Write them down! Save them!<\/p>\n

A few I like are: Lilliputian, grommet, butterfly, whimsical, and gumption.<\/p>\n

Think of five of your favorite words and write a poem using them. If you can\u2019t think of words, open to a random page in the dictionary and find a word you like. You can use some of my favorite words from above if you like.<\/p>\n

Keep collecting words to use another day!<\/p>\n

\n

Set the timer for 7 minutes.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Start writing!
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t think about it too much; just do it. <\/strong><\/h3>\n
