So I was challenged by the lovely *ahem* Every Word You Say to undertake writing an entire paragraph without using the letter E once. (By the way, I haven’t started yet, just in case you were thinking I really haven’t understood the point of this!! 🙂 )
****************************************
I shall begin now. Holy macaroni, how tough. A quick brainstorm and what joy, amazingly I can still wax lyrical about pink, unicorns, a fabulous sparkly fairy, fun things such as knights, dragons, roaring dinosaurs, glowing light from bright moons shining in a dark night sky.
Also, a fun fact about your author, four birthdays flown past from a point that, big with baby bump, I took against an innocuous thing, a tomato, and still to this day, I can’t stand to munch that fruit.
So thanks to you, blogging buddy, for passing on this writing hardship, so tough, traumatic I would go so far to say. Now though, I must go, for a mosquito is trying to hunt my tasty blood.
Boom! 😀
*****************************************
Wow, so I am more than a little proud of myself now. As Mr Pear Bear said; nailed it! High praise indeed!
Never one to hog all the fun, I nominate these bloggers to do the same! Let’s get those synapses firing!! 😀
- Link to the person who nominated you and thank them.

And that’s me done! Phew, goodbye for now! 😀
I’m loath to click like on this one! It’s going to take some work. Very impressed with your paragraph!!!
Haha it is actually not that bad, I just wrote down all the things I could think of without an e in & jiggled them into a paragraph! Glad you like it. 🙂
Thanks? I think? 😉
Well done!!
OMG that’s so difficult to do. Good job!
Thank you! It is really tricky, finding ‘e-less’ words isn’t too hard but juggling them into sentences that aren’t just a nonsensical jumble of crazy is another matter! 😀
Haha, thanks for the nomination … I think. You did an excellent job with that. I’m definitely going to give this a shot because it looks fun in a convoluted sort of way, but I may not blog the results.
Ok that is fine, on the condition that you share it with me somehow! I promise to keep it private. 🙂 It was so so fun in a weird way. I love words!
I did it! (I don’t mind sharing it here. It’s just that I’m just not sure I could get a whole blog post out of it. As you will see, my paragraph doesn’t really relate to anything I’m saying here. I guess it could be part of a fictional book, but it wouldn’t slot neatly into a blog post like yours did.) It was daunting, but when I got started it wasn’t too bad. And it was fun!
“I walk up a narrow, twisting mountain path. Thick cloud pools and swirls all around, soupy, and I am lost in fog. It is damp against my skin, as though cold, clammy hands touch my body. If my foot slips on the slick rock I will fall.”
And I just realised that I could have started with “it was a dark and stormy night…” and tried to tell a campfire horror story. But oh well.
Oh you are GOOD!!! I am so impressed! I found it so fun that I have started a series, just adding a paragraph to the bottom of my blog posts. So far I’ve done A!! https://pinkpearbear.wordpress.com/2015/07/31/holidays-with-children-aka-how-to-bring-on-a-nervous-breakdown/ Feel free to join in if you fancy! I added your first sentence and it does sound like a ghost story, well done! 😀
