Words for story prompts

This is an entry in the Saturday series of Timeless & Timely called “Off the Clock.” A newsletter for word nerds.

And the Prize is Death by Albert Levering, 1910 (public domain - Library of Congress)
 

Longtime readers of this newsletter will know that I like to stick to a single topic each week that pervades both the main Timeless & Timely newsletter and the weekend “Off the Clock” entry.

Since “Off the Clock” concerns itself with words and since this week’s theme was storytelling, that means that today I had to come up with words about words about words.

It’s enough to make your head spin.

 

One of the tricks for storytellers who are stumped for story ideas comes from Matthew Dicks in his excellent book Storyworthy.
