A Word for the 'Aspiring Writer'

Isn’t writing pretty? 🙂

Okay. Wonder what the writer’s life is like? This is what it’s like. I just got through writing, um, how many words did I write? Let me just check. Oh, I didn’t even know. I’m barely aware of my word count these days, but I write every single day. Where the hell did I start? Wait. Nope. Not there. Nope. Not there. Not there. Not there. Okay. It was there, right? Okay. It was right here. Actually. I changed that. Yeah. Okay, so let me see. Come up with that word count.

Forget it. It doesn’t matter. What matters is I ran across a situation where I wrote the word “gobsmacked” and I thought, okay, would a 30-year-old woman in the year 2022, which is when this is taking place, use the word gobsmacked? So I had to Google it or whatever you want to call it, and came up with gobsmacked: “The British Slang Gobsmacked: A Closer Look.”
