Forty-three words …

Keith's Ramblings

for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where the given word is Lucid and the limit, 43 words.

.

.

Lucinda Longbottom was not the most lucid lecturer at Littlebutte Learning centre.  Her love of alliteration meant her lessons lacked intelligibility: her meaningless meanderings left many muddleheaded and mystified.

She was dismissed.

Luckily she landed a likeable livelihood as a lexicographer in London.

        I was over at Blogger and visited Rosey’s blog this morning. You’ll have to get after her, Keith! She must have lots of stories to tell. 🙂

    Lots to like in this lugubrious, level-headed lexicon.
    Are you from Leith, Keith?

    Hi Keith – I think I’d better leave the ‘ell’ out of the comment … clearly done though! All the best – Hilary

    That was so much fun! I’ll leave the alliterative responses to the others… 😉
