I've been wanting to add this assignment for some time
now. I let it lapse last year, but I think now is the time to resurrect it. I hope you like it.
This is the deal: We read so much, and so many times we read
something that we like, some quote that's catchy, or that makes us laugh, or smile, or
think, or frown, or cry, or want to share it with someone we know will
appreciate it. The problem usually is that by the time we see that
person, we forget about the beautiful language or interesting thought that we wanted to
remember. Anyway, that's where the "Turn a Phrase" blog comes
in handy.
Your task is to leave us a morsel each week from something that
you've read that has some sort of appeal to you. Something that evokes a
feeling, whatever that may be. So, read, read, read, and when you come
across a quote (which you inevitably will), blog. Tell us what you
think about your quote, why you chose it, where you found it, and what it means to you. And feel free to comment on someone else's quote if you wish.
I've left the first comment, and now . . . it's your turn :)
