Throwback Thursday #9

Today's blast from the past comes from July 22 of last year.

It's said that Shakespeare invented over 1,700 words during his tenure as the greatest wordsmith of all time. Sure, just because those words never appeared in any manuscript before his doesn't mean he actually invented those words, but given how prolific his output was, he had to have done something for that final number.

Either way, it's every writer's dream to add a word to the English lexicon. Even Russian writers want to add words to the English lexicon. And on the date so aforementioned, I made a word for a niche not currently filled by our modern dictionaries.

The word is 'thinkjoust.'
