WRITING CONTEST: Every Monday a new, interesting vocabulary word will be posted here, as well as a sentence using that word.
Your job is to create and post a new, better sentence in the comment box, using the same word. Yes, you may change the form of the word. Yes, I’ll be the judge. Yes, I am a subjective judge ( I like clever or funny, I hate bigotry).
The winning sentence will be announced here the following Monday.
