RE: ColorChallenge: FridaySkyBlue - "Blue Skies" [9MinuteFreeWrite]
So much deep feeling and emotions for such cold metallic names. A love a good juxtaposition. You've done a lot with this story given its inherent restrictions. To create something like this in a limited time, and have it developed enough that it is sustainable for a week, that's extremely good going.
Juxtaposition! That's the word that's gnawing at me! I knew it started with 'J' and ended with 'tion' I just couldn't quite piece together the 'uxta.' Haha! And I always used to use that word to stump people, too! I don't know why I couldn't remember it. I got stuck with contrast haha
Thank you for the kind praise, mate! It was truly a labor of love. As you put it, my shadow gripped at me, nudging me to not post it, but I bit the bullet and opened the shutters. I'm glad it's being received quite well. Thanks for sticking with this as we head to the home stretch! :)
It's one of those words. It's like conundrum. Not in its meaning, but its strangeness. I like the way they sound. As an author if I can juxtapose a conundrum with some other strangeness then that would be a good story :)
HAHA! Yeah, it definitely has a pseudo-onamotopoeiaic vibe, nay, ring to it ;) Those are the words I've picked up in my quest to improve in Boggle and Scrabble haha!
