I know... I'm sinning. Today is thursday and there is no truth section. Don't hate. It happens, but I just think that maybe something else was just as fun and my blog is OH SO FULL with other stuff that this is the only open place I had. Sad I know... but, the truth is, taking a break from airing my thoughts or dirty laundry is nice. So... let's get to the real post at hand!
Rachael Harrie gave me a funtastic post (that's right fun-tastic) post today. Last week she wrote seven writing tips one cannot live without. She's a fantastic blogger who has done some amazing things for the blogging community so after this fun-tastic post please do stop by for a visit!
That being said she did a little play on words that had me giggling.
BICHOK. Butt In Chair, Hands On Keyboard
It got me thinking... wouldn't it be fun to have a writer's dictionary where we share different (and super fun to say) words that are really acronyms. So I thought up some of my own and I encourage you to do the same... let's let this dictionary climb!
So here are mine...
STANKY - Sucky time a naming karachters yourself (I didn't say it'd always be spelled right).
BONDTAR - Busy opening new document to access remote (that's right people, no time for multi-tasking).
LUSTOF - love us some twitter over food (seriously cheeseburger or tweets which wins... twitter while already at home).
WUFFO - Writing until fingers fall off (we know the feeling)
BUYD - Blog untill you drop
I never said they were going to be brilliantly witty but these are the one's I'd like to incorporate into the regular streem of writerly acronyms. What are you adding?
If you'd like a list of the regular writer acronymns for the world of writers do stop by Clarissa Draper's place where she's been sweet enough to list them out for us!

Those are great, Jen! How about WiWFoC - Will Write for Coffee. :)
Very Cute! I always liked BIC -- Butt in Chair. Very important writer advice!
HA! I love these:)
*Going into shock for lack of truths* Hee-hee, just kidding. I love making up words but acronyms will take me a little longer; may have to return to share them. I enjoyed yours and I like the misspelled addition--more room to move around. :)
My Blog
These are great. WUFFO is my favorite.
Cute! :D My tip: D.A.D. = Die Adverbs, DIE.
I love BICHOK. I think I need to repeat it to myself like a mantra.
Hi Jen! LOL! I love this. Have you heard of the book, Fictionary by Daily Candy - words that don't exist but should? It is a funny book that have got those - words that don't exist. I love it. I love BICHOK and WUFFO too :)
Cute! I like this idea. How about the writer's nightmare?
ONIWS - Oh no! It Wasn't Saved!
Great acronyms. I really love WUFFO.
you're so crazy. I need a combo of LUSTOF and WUFFO. That's when the cheeseburger loses--when I'm WUFFOing... :D

Thanks for the smile!
Now back to BICHOK...
I can't think of anything clever-- a bit brain dead, need food...

When I've had my coffee, I'll try to think of some too.
Love it! Mine would definitely be MHMC: must have more coffee. :-)

I frequently tell myself to SFAAW which 1) is fun to say and 2) means Stop F-ing Around And WRITE.
You are too funny! Love the new words.
I love Wuffo!
Those were good!
I like Sara McClung's.
Those are awesome Jen! (Stanky...hee hee. Love it.)
BICHOK is a must for me sometimes. And I love WUFFO!
