"And this," continued Liz, "is a Snodgebucket - I think you'll find it very useful. "Oohh I have never before seen a Snodgebucket", said Maria. "I shall put it to use straight away, I am sure my desk is overflowing with snodge".
A snodgebucket - a place of hibernating jottings, and the last vestage of hope for a desperate writer |
Now for those of you not familiar with snodge, let me enlighten you. You see even here in random creative scribble world we are still plagued by jargon, and Snodge stands for:
S - scrappy
N - notes
O - of
D - dubious
G - general
E - eloquence
I have two more to come, but first to cook pretend xmas dinner
Bye for now
Oh! That's wonderful!! I wondered what a snodgebucket was AND NOW I KNOW!!! I loved the line - "I'm sure my desk is overflowing with snodge!" At that point I wasn't aware what snodge actually was so it conjured up wonderful pictures! ;) And it is so true - brilliance often appears out of snodge!! that was so good - I'm going to have to throw more at you - this is fun!
ReplyDeleteHope the Chirstmas dinner went well!
Lol, yes I didn't really know until I started writing. It's funny what your mind comes up with. Hope you are keeping all your snodge. Yes a rather odd xmas dinner off morrocan lamb followed by ginger cake.
