Magpo (Magnetic Poetry, for the uninitiated) is great fun for word geeks and, well, everyone, based on a really poorly designed study of all of the guests at my house. Magpo is one of those genius ideas that made me mad, in a why didn't I think of that/people really spend money on that? sort of way. It's so much fun to use, though, that I couldn't stay mad for long.

Some writers are better than others. Some wrangle words in an attempt to seem profound. Some, well, I don't know. (See 'drunk vision, ' above.)
Write on, anyway!

I used to mess around with those little magnetic words on my fridge too and somehow end up staring at them way longer than I should. There is something weirdly satisfying about just playing with words and seeing what random phrases come out. Honestly it reminds me of when I am procrastinating before finishing essays… I will do anything except start writing. Back in nursing school I used to look for nursing assignments help online just to get unstuck when my brain felt totally blank. Funny how word games and writing stress somehow live in the same universe. Anyway, loved the vibe of this post. Super relatable for anyone who enjoys messing around with words.
