What words make you want to click and read?
Your words! What a fun list – I really enjoy how it provides insight into who you are while also making all the pleasure centers in my brain light up. “Feral” might be my favourite word on this list – I immediately wondered how often that shows up in slices.
This seems like a random list, but truly is a Slice view into your personality and likes. I like the way they are organized by topic. Interesting post!
Love how you did this – for me it is the writing words, garden words, reflection words – I like this idea of words make me what to click, Thanks
Thanks for sharing your list. I’m with you one the books/libraries/reading list.
Enjoyed reading your list, love how it gives us another lens to know you. My wonderings: How many times did these words show up on our links? What words on this list would be common to March slicers? Could we group readers by the common words on their lists? Could lists like this provide “marketing words” to draw in readers for future SOLs? Could a list like this be a way to introduce oneself… like at the beginning of March? ???

Your “books” and “writing…” word lists are what I click on, too! This is such a clever idea – I hadn’t thought about words that elicit my clicks!
One of mine is definitely poem! I really like the intentionality of how you’ve ordered these words and how you end with joy. Thanks for the clever idea!
What a great thing to think about! Love your list, love how poetic it is.
Pillows
Flowers
Sand
Cookies
Birds
Patio
Great list. So many of these would appear on my list of keywords as well – cats being at the top.
Love that you were able to use this idea! We share some of the same ones (cats, all things books, cookies) and your list triggered a few more for me.
