  1. But are they good words? Tee-hee. Congrats on your productivity. Xoxoxo

  2. Some of them are quite good. Like “nonetheless”. That’s three words for the price of one! Brillz!

  3. Coty

    I’m very proud!

  4. Great job! Keep the words flowing!

  5. Have I made my cameo yet?!?!

    If not, make me a Cloverfield Monsta-Fighting stripper with a mohawk and endearing eye twitch! Tanx!

  6. Tam

    Well done. Keep up the great work. I love savage chickens.

  7. Mel

    I think you should try to work “penultimate” in there somewhere. It’s a perfectly good word that’s far too often left by the wayside.

  8. Michelle M.

    I guess this month we’re cheering monkeys. Go Craig!

  9. Coty

    Mel: Penultimate is such a hard word to work into normal conversation without seeming like trying. Plus everybody thinks penultimate means best :( too bad they’re wrong.

  10. M. Nicodemus

    Good job! Keep it up!

    Mel: I always like the word ‘nacre’ I really don’t know why, but I manage to sneak it into just about everything I write.

  11. Mel

    Coty: It could be worked into some of the expositional passages of the book. The challenge is what makes its successful use such a writerly coup.

    M. Nicodemus: Oooh, also a good word. Maybe one of the characters could wear an argyle cardigan with nacre buttons.
