The Alchemist's Door-Lisa Goldstein
Sentences of the Week--
"Vell, aren't you the paragon of comvort!" he growled. "Here I am, heartbroken and zlightly snockered, and some impudent little 13-year-old bursts in here and starts lekturing me about my personal business!" --Professor Lawrence from The Hollows by my good friend Chloe.
Only one quote this time. I fully realize how lame an excuse this is, but Into the Wild Nerd Yonder just made me so adverse to reading that I could barely even bring myself to check Facebook. I'm just relieved that I'm through with it. And no, it did not get better. But I'll leave that for a later post.
The quote is posted here because "snockered" is a real word, no matter what the Firefox spellchecker says, which means "drunk." It is also the greatest word. Professor Lawrence has a German accent, by the way, so that's why the spelling is a bit off.

Was gonna say, snockered didn't sound like a word. By the way, how is the Alchemist's Door so far? I'm assuming it's a fantasy story?
ReplyDeleteYour reference to me has brought me much joy.
ReplyDeleteWords Mr. Hill needs to teach his students: Snockered, unstupidify. (Okay, that second one U made up, but if it was real, it would make explaining why people need to edit things)
