COMMON WORD STORY 16 WHAT AMERICANS WANTED
This is a writing exercise using common words. I have collected a list of 17,000
words. From this I have chosen twenty words at random. The exercise is to write a story with
at least ten of them. I have included my story along with a translation into other words.
Here is the list:
- RABBLE
- GLOBE
- ERE
- SCRIPT
- JUDICIOUS
- CONCEPT
- FACILITY
- CAPTIOUS
- DEBENTURE
- PEER
- LADYFINGER
- BACKFIRE
- DELTOID
- PENAL
- BUOY
- MANNEQUIN
- JURISPRUDENCE
- DISAVOW
- UNEARTH
- MILLER
Here is my story:
When the concept of global mercantilism was unearthed in Europe, it
backfired on England. The American colonies were captious of penal measures
to buoy up English industries. American industries were being kept down in favor
of English ones.
Millers, bakers and their peers formed a rabble, demanding independence.
They wanted debentures payable in American issued script and disavowed
allegiance to the crown.
When the idea of world-wide nation favoring trade policy was invented in
Europe, in had bad consequences for England. The American colonies were
critical of laws to aid English industries. American industries were being
held back in favor of English ones.
Grain grinders, bakers and the like formed a mob, calling for freedom.
They wanted debts payable in American created money and denied special loyalty
to England.
