Word of the Day: Eminent

What a wonderful weekend!  I hope that all of you had a great weekend as well.  It is Monday the 14^th of March and a new beginning for a great week.  

Let’s get down to business.  Today’s word of the day is coming from Pat K. in Cody, WY.  She has been a good friend and client to me for years and when I spoke with her last she was talking about how much her granddaughter loved the book, “The Immortal Lost”.  That was a great boon for my ego.  Yet, in the same conversation Pat tried to wrangle a few tidbits out of me on the next book, “Dark Days.”

Sorry everyone, that is just not going to happen. I love you all and appreciate the dedication that you have shown.  But I will not be giving away the story before it has had a chance to gain momentum.  So before my conversation ended with Pat, she decided that she would attempt to gain a couple of the chapters from book two “Dark Days” by entering a word of the day.  Her word choice is eminent.  We gained our definition from our online source at www.thefreedictionary.com

em·i·nent  (m-nnt) adj. 1. Of high rank, station, or quality; noteworthy: eminent members of the community. 2. Outstanding, as in character or performance; distinguished: an eminent historian. 3. Towering or standing out above others; prominent: an eminent peak.

eminent [ˈɛmɪnənt]

adj

1. above others in rank, merit, or reputation; distinguished an eminent scientist

2. (prenominal) noteworthy, conspicuous, or outstanding eminent good sense

3. projecting or protruding; prominent

[from Latin ēminēre to project, stand out, from minēre to stand]

eminently  adv

I think this is a great word to describe some of the characters in the book series. In fact, I would say that Gelmir is of eminent importance to the storyline.  Tell me what you think and don’t forget to submit your word of the day.  After all, you could end up winning a couple chapters of the book Dark Days or even an e-reader.  So make sure that you submit it today.

Until tomorrow, Read On!!  H.R. Phillips
