Word of the day

To keep myself from writer’s block and to encourage my writerly productivity, I set myself the challenge of writing a short work (free-form poetry or flash fiction)  based on the word provided to me for the day from my ‘Word of the Day’ app. If you are lacking creativity or inspiration for writing, I’d suggest you too should attempt this challenge.
