I never have a word for #weirdwords but thanks to the tagged book I now do! Though it‘s probably not weird for a musician.

CBee I remember this word!! I‘m a lapsed musician, I guess you could say. Want me to add you to my tag list? 2d

Sace @CBee sure! But I don‘t know how often I‘ll have a word. 2d

CBee @Sace no worries! Post when you find a goodie 😊 2d

I know I‘ve done an interesting color words post before, but I just LOVE unique words for colors. Here are a few, and here‘s an article to read: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/59328/19-colors-youve-probably-never-heard
Who knew “puke” and “xanadu” were colors? #weirdwords #weirdwordswednesday

CBee @BookmarkTavern I‘m still laughing at “drunk tank pink” 😂😂 2d

Megabooks My dad always liked the word chartreuse for colors! 2d

BookmarkTavern Xanadu is used as a training address in the post office, so I‘m going to be giggling about it for a while. 😂 2d

CBee @BookmarkTavern omg that‘s awesome 😂😂👏🏻👏🏻 2d

CBee @Megabooks I love that one too! 2d

Butterfinger I have had a Cyan and a Magenta as students' names and thought that was some pretty cool parents. They have both graduated. 2d

@cbee

CBee Nice! I always heard it said “pablum” in reference to baby food - maybe sort of a rice cereal? My boys never liked it 😂 1w

lil1inblue @CBee I guess Pablum was a brand name for baby cereal, and the name was based on this word! Kinda interesting! 1w

CBee @lil1inblue very! 1w

dabbe I think a few of my students thought I was this, but they probably used an easier swear word instead. 😅 3w

CBee @dabbe oh please! I could never think of you as bossy or belligerent. If you were strict, it‘s because you wanted to push them to do their best! Would‘ve loved to see you in action 😁 3w

dabbe @CBee You are too kind! I definitely was a pusher--in all the best ways, of course! 😘 3w

vivastory 😂😂😂😂 3w

Megabooks Idk. This might be #goals for me??? 3w

CBee @Megabooks 😂😂😂 I don‘t know that I‘d necessarily blame you! 3w

I‘ve been spending the day working on a new novel idea, and it‘s my first time writing without any kind of outline.

It is both terrifying and exhilarating. 😂

#WeirdWordWednesday #WeirdWords @CBee

Ruthiella Good luck! 🍀 1mo

julesG It does sound more eloquent than 'pantser' 😉 1mo

AnnCrystal It's Exhilarating! 👏🏼😉👌🏼 You got this 📝💝.. 1mo

CBee How exciting!! You can do it 🙌🏻 1mo

CatLass007 Awesome! I didn‘t know you are a novelist. Have you written anything in which I might be interested? You have to remember that I‘m interested in reading every genre. Also, I agree with @julesG, it does sound more eloquent than “pantster.” Thanks for the tag! 1mo

BookmarkTavern @CatLass007 This one‘s a cozy mystery! And nothing published as of yet! But I‘m hoping to have something by the end of the year to start querying. We‘ll see how that goes! 🤞🏻 1mo

CatLass007 Excellent! I love cozies. Does it have a theme? Cats, dogs, book club, baking, crafting, etc.? Or do you know yet? 1mo

BookmarkTavern @CatLass007 my amateur sleuth has inherited an old train diner car and is restoring it as an old fashioned diner! 1mo

CatLass007 Cool!! I definitely would patronize the diner. (edited) 1mo
