#44 - Chronicles

When I was trying to think of something for this week, I wanted to give you a really literary word. For some reason the first word that popped into my head was, "Chronicles." It's a lovely word, bringing to mind huge, looming adventures in places like Narnia. When I thought of it in the context of Sunday Scribblings, however, I second-guessed myself. So I did what any good writer would do when confronted with a word they are unsure of: I looked it up!

chron·i·cle (krŏn'ĭ-kəl)
n.
  1. An extended account in prose or verse of historical events, sometimes including legendary material, presented in chronological order and without authorial interpretation or comment.
  2. A detailed narrative record or report.
  3. Chronicles (used with a sing. verb) (Abbr. Chr. or Chron. or Ch) A book of the Bible.
tr.v., -cled, -cling, -cles.

To record in or in the form of a historical record. (Taken from answers.com)

And there it was - a real challenge for you this week! Good luck!

    I have a quick question. I already have entry written, but was wating until at least Saturday to post it. Do most people post theirs on Sunday, or does it really matter? Just wondering. Thanks!
