Yeah, I said it. It’s the V-word Day. As a writer of romance, you’d think that I’d be all over this day like pasties on a stripper with some amazingly hot, possibly even sappy excerpt from one of my upcoming novels, or even the one that’s available now – Hey, it’s V-Day (BUY MY BOOK!) What? It’s all about buying stuff today, isn’t it?
Ugh. Okay, fine. The truth is that as optimistic as I am by nature, I have never, not even once, ever, had a good Valentines Day. So… today I’m ditching the “-alentines” and focusing solely on the “V.” I’ve been compiling a list of words and names that begin with the letter “V” without hitting the dictionary or Google, just to see how many I can actually think of. I’m happy to announce that I amazed myself and I haven’t had enough coffee yet to word that less egotistically, my apologies.
Here’s my list of non-alentine words:
Voluptuous
Vivacious
Virility
Vortex
Velocity

Okay, I swear and promise and all that good stuff that I did not look any of those up. Now, it’s your turn! Can you think of any words or names that begin with the letter “V” (that doesn’t end in “alentines”)??? ♥
