Some time ago the lovely Edwina who has episodes, again (bad girl) set me a challenge, which I am only now getting around to. I must write a paragraph without using the letter E. The actual official rules are as follows:
- Write a whole paragraph (a paragraph sounds easy right?)
- Without any word containing the letter “e” (still easy for ya?)
- By reading this you are already signed up.
- Challenge at least five bloggers to do the challenge.
Here after much thought is my effort:
This is hard! Most words contain it, but I must think of how to avoid it showing. I’m having to think hard and wrack my slow top box to skirt around it. Is this a paragraph? I pray it is, for if not I am stuck. I want to run, far away from this string of words. I would whoop, but I will finish with a shush….and go watch tv!
I am not going to nominate anyone, but this was fun, so if you would like to give it a try please feel free.
(I swear e’s kept slipping into my paragraph, if you see one, don’t tell me, I’ll be devastated lol)
Not an E in sight! Most impressive!

I’d probably cheat. It was a great moment of enlightenment when my English teacher asked us to find the shortest paragraph in a piece of prose. Ah, said I. that will be the paragraph with only one word. It’s been my stylistic downfall since then – so melodramatic.

Lol, I was never that great at English, a fact that is proven by the fact I am going to have to pull out a dictionary to look up half the words you just used :)

Well done! I’m fairly sure I would not be able to accomplish that, seeing as E is one of my very favorite letters. ;)
