Twisty Tuesday. You Gotta Love It!

You know one thing I really appreciate about life? It's full of twists. Twists make our lives interesting. Sometimes that's not always a good thing, but in writing? They're like decadent espresso shots for your novel.

Twists are shining gems, my friends. Devious, evil, and utterly vile gems. And oh man are they fun. In honor of the twisty goodness, I've dubbed Tuesday as Twisty Tuesday. My little gift to you. You're welcome.

Want a plot twist for your next WIP? Look no further. I got one to spice things up a bit right here:

 The best friend of the MC is forced by the antagonist to jump off a building. The MC witnesses the whole thing.

Whattaya think? Pretty diabolical, huh? Was your face akin to this cat's?:

If so, my job here is done.

I'll see you guys next time...Or will I?...

Syntaxian Saturday: ALETHIOLOGY

So what's 'Syntaxian Saturday'? Well, I'm glad you asked! (Even if you didn't, I'm still going to tell you). 

I'm not really human. I'm an alien species known as a 'Syntaxian.' Syntaxians are peculiar creatures, and at times we can be a little cookoo. We are capable of love, hate, passion, violence, and kindness. But perhaps what we are best known for is our love of words. We can shape them into whatever we desire: characters, cities, worlds, even universes! With the power of words, we can pretty much do whatever the heck we want. Scary, huh? 

You should be scared.

So back to 'Syntaxian Saturday.' Ideally, I'd like for this to be a thing for every Saturday. Like a "word of the day" kind of thing, but with totally awesome, not-your-run-of-the-mill kind of words. Sound fun? Good. 

Without further adieu, here is our first word:

Love this word? Me too. Bonus points if you can use it in a sentence!

Later guys!
