The What: I have decided to start a new series as sort of a self-assignment. I will be pulling a word from each letter and writing at least a paragraph about that word. So the series will be at least 26 entries long (well, 27 when you count this one).

The Why: Well, I have three children and I tell them the best way to learn new words and concepts is to read and then incorporate those words into your everyday vocabulary. When you combine this, finding my book and the fact that I have been trying to find topics to write about – I decided that this would be fun to do.

The How: The definitions will be pulled from various sources that I will note as we go. And if I find something really interesting in relation to the topic I will let you know. (Go! Research!)

The When: My goal is to go at least one entry per week.

The Where: I found a book (I have more books than I know what to do with) and thought it would be great to polish up on my working vocabulary. The book, Basic Vocabulary Builder by Eugene Ehrlich and Daniel Murphy, was printed back in 1975

Hope you enjoy (and maybe learn something).  I am expecting to.
