So, in the interest of making this issuing of inspiration easier I'm trying to do a theme for each day of the week.
On Wednesdays I will open the thesaurus--the big one that I bring to meetings occasionally--and choose a word at random. Then, I will give you three alternatives to that word.
Today's word is grove:
Grove-- wood, copse, thicket
I challenge you to write piece about a wood...or perhaps a copse, but notice how different words that mean essentially the same thing change the tone of a story.
Never underestimate the importance of word choice.
