test post

Mostly just a test to see if Blogger is working.

I like Karen's idea of summarizing novels as a game like Charades and Name That Tune. I think you'd need one person to act as host, and two teams would play. The same title is given to one member of each team, who then bid on how many words they'll need to identify the book to their team members. Whoever thinks they can do it in fewer words gets to try first. No title words or character names allowed.

But do you require the words to be in the form of a "What if" sentence? Do articles and prepositions count, and if so, is it legal to omit them? "Murdered girl narrates"? "Magician vanishes Harding"?
