Prepare yourselves for… The _ Word.

The “_”will be filled by a different letter for each post, for a total of 26. i.e. “The A Word”, etc.

Ostensibly, the cleverness comes from playing on the euphemisms for certain notable letters, like say “B” for example. I’m not actually going to write a post on the b word, but instead any other b word. It’s basically a self-invitation to write a set of short essays on random topics, and tie it all together with only an alphabetic pretense.

Doing this in the expected, sing-song order is too restricting of my already-limited creative output, so I’m just going to do this in whatever order and at whatever pace I feel like. I hope it turns out alright…

is it winter there?
