@macgenie I hope my post didn’t come out sounding like criticism of the RWG! I was having a down afternoon and genuinely enjoyed thinking about the positive possibilities of the word possible but didn’t have the energy to be creative. (Sorry for the alliteration - hard habit to resist). It is tricky to convey nuances when I am writing, especially if I am writing hastily - sorry. This is my first Microblogvember and I have been really enjoying it, both the writing (even if I cringe a bit afterwards) and especially reading what others have written! I like your idea of a crowdsourced word list for next year. I’d love to see what people come up with (and would be happy to join in, too). Thanks, much!
