No, you’re not mistaken, I ended Wednesday Word last month with the word fizzle as my linkup slowly fizzled out. Today’s post is a wrap up – my little way of keeping my posts together in a well-organized place as I delete the linkups tab from my website.
For two and a half years I hosted a linkup called Wednesday Word. It started out as weekly, but after a little over a year I switched it to monthly. I posted a single word prompt to write about and encouraged my linkers to let their imaginations run free as they either shared their interpretation of that word or used it as inspiration for a post. It was always interesting to see everyones spin on each Wednesday Word!
My very first word was solitude which I posted on April 8, 2015. It is a word I love which resulted in one of my favorite posts. Seven favorites are denoted below with (WW favorite) after the word. Over the course of the linkup there were 112 words and each is listed below with a direct link to my take on that word. My Inlinkz subscription will end at the beginning of December and I suspect that at that time you will no longer be able to see or click through to the articles of other bloggers who linked up; an unfortunate consequence because there really were some great posts!
From April 8, 2015 to October 3, 2018 I wrote articles using these Wednesday Word prompts. Simply click on the blue link to go to that post…

Thanks for the opportunity to participate in the Wednesday Word over the last few years.
You’re welcome, thanks for participating!
Tenacious is a great word! I think I definitely could have written something on that.
Judy, your posts were some of my favorites. You always had a great take on the word of the week/month. Thanks for being such a consistent “linker upper.”
Aw, thanks! I always enjoyed that the wednesday word made me think!
I loved Wednesday Word! I know my participation waned after you switched to monthly — I kept forgetting. 🙁
I agree that it was tough to remember once I took it monthly, but it was just too much to keep up with as a weekly linkup. I enjoyed having you join us whenever you could!
