COMMON WORD STORY 17 YOU MUST BE PROPER
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:
- MOONSHINE
- MORTICIAN
- CANTOR
- WHOLESALE
- EUCLIDEAN
- CAIMAN
- DULY
- BENNY
- COOK
- FLICKER
- DEPOSE
- PLEDGE
- INVERSION
- POH
- MUSTY
- AEROPLANE
- POLYCHROME
- DECREE
- EYELASH
- ROSEMARY
Here is my story:
A cantor must be duly proper. Benny, who was also a part time
mortician, took a wholesale pledge to abstain from moonshine.
However; in a musty polychrome lab, he cooked up mash into alcohol in
secret. He flavored it with rosemaery and it sold well.
It was an inversion of everything decreed by his religion and position.
When it was revealed, he was deposed from his place in the synogouge.
A Jewish religious singer must be by definition well behaved. Benny, who
was also an undertaker on the side, took a categorical oath to stay away from
strong drink.
However; in a moldy garish lab, he cooked up corn meal into alcohol in secret.
He flavored it with herbs and it sold well.
It was a complete about face from everything demanded by his religion and status.
When it was made known, he was dropped from his job in the congregation.
Concluding Thoughts:
Like tarot cards, random words suggest a story. Here, I put words together into
a somewhat logical story in a workman-like way.
