My Dear Nobles and Friends:

I will be putting out Volume 2 of the glossary tomorrow.  I was going to do it tonight, but my eyes are getting sore.  I meant to include pictures with most of the entries in volume 1 but my editing option timed out.  Thank you for the interest in this work.  More will be forthcoming.

By My Own Hand,

King Ryan the Bibliophile of Wordsmithonia

I'm sorry I wasn't more explicit.  Those titles I wrote were just a few random thoughts, now  I want ALL OF YOU to write some titles down under this message subject line.  Be creative!  Then we can all pick the one (1) we like. 

p.s.  I had actually thought about printing all of these posts (storylines), and putting them into a storybook, but I never thought that the thread, and story, would get as large as it has.  Sounds like work, now!  Pretty soon we're going to need a whole board, just for this Kingdom to flourish! LOL  If anyone does want to do something with this story, like publish it, just remember to include everyone's name who has contributed to it....and of course, we WILL split the royalties! (pun intended)

Oh dear, I warned you, dear Sire, that those Nuns were Devious!  They have fooled you.  The Nun that you identify as the Singing Nun is, in fact, known as "The Problem" (aka Maria).

Here is a photo of the true Singing Nun, working her enchantment on an ambassador who went on to spread her influence among thousands:

Singing Nun with Victim

I also found this Line-up in the Post Office, with the dread Singing Nun shown amongst other Notorious Nuns of the Cabal that every citizen of Wordsmithonia should be Vigilant for:

Nuns on the Run

Now I must go and pack for the Royal GardenHat Party.  I am considering exchanging my planned costume for one made of Potato Sacks.  Something like this:

Potato Sack Fashion

Ah, Potatoes, Potatoes, Potatoes - come to Mama, my Darlings!!!  Is this a Potato I see before me???
