The 3WT #37 words will be: aretaloger; kexy; & gardeviance
Aretaloger-braggart; one who boasts about his own accomplishments
Kexy-dry, brittle, withered
Gardeviance -chest for valuables; a travelling trunk


Our local aretaloger brags about the magic qualities of his gardeviance which kept leaves from becoming kexy.


The deer hunting aretaloger bragged that he got the deer out into the open by rubbing kexy leaves across the bamboo gardeviance he carried them in.

We will admit that Quilly's words can be a bit kexy. They are often found in old gardeviances filled with yellowing love letters writen long ago. They are not the kind of words the village aretaloger uses i9n his bragging. But if you lrearn a few the next time he brags answer him with Quilly words. That will shut him up.
Dearest Fandango, as always, my favorite part of your writing - -good as your sentences are -- is your advertisement for why folks should join 3WT. I wish the ads were as effective as they are fun, because out numbers are too few!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Quilly on that -- but among your five mini-stories, my sympathies are all with that poor gardeviance-lugging dragonista who's forced to listen as she walks!! Oh, poor dear: that reminds me of some too-long flights I've been on! LOL
ReplyDeleteI like the hunting story best.

The middle one is the best for me. But all excellent.
ReplyDeleteWell done. I love the third one. I suppose because it has a dragon involved but I can just picture this in my mind. All are fantastic as usual but that one if my fav. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was the first one because my mind read "sexy" instead of "kexy" and then I realized my error.
ReplyDeleteSo then my favorite was the one Susan chose too. Poor grand dame dragon!
Very nice, Dragon person.
