inkstainsReminders: This week's topic and editing post! Both are due this Saturday, so I hope everyone's on top of their game. (If not, best of luck!)
Remember, if you have suggestions for prompts or TnT topics, feel free to let the mods know :)
Some writers really like their thesauruses.
I mean really. I think it's fantastic to learn new words (cachinnate), or see a less used one pop up (defenestrate, vitriol), but when I have to stop reading and run for the dictionary, it becomes a nuisance (asseverate).
What do you think about Thesaurus Word of the Day? Should we dip into less-used words to write, or will everyday language suffice?
