Wordsmith’s word of the day today is “forwhy”.
My friend Rob sends these to me when they have a Shakespeare slant. Today’s word comes from Titus Andronicus, of all places! Thanks Rob!

This horror movie homage to the Scottish play has Macbeth rising from the dead to wreak havoc on his former kingdom. The linked article really goes into more detail than I could here, I’d just be summarizing the original, so go read that instead.
Ok, I said I’d get my act together, and I didn’t lie. The winner of the Manga Shakespeare edition of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is… Bill, from Shakespeare Teacher! Congratulations, Bill! Get in touch with a mailing address and I’ll send the book right along. Thanks for playing everybody (and to those who didn’t even realize they were playing :)). I’ve got a good game in mind for the next giveaway, I just have to get back in touch with the publisher and get some giveaways :).
Hi Everybody,
I haven’t forgotten about the Manga Shakespeare contest, just finding myself very busy now that my old schedule has gone completely out the window with the loss of my job. You have no idea what it does to a geek like myself (and in this case I mean geek in the computer sense) when you take away the machine that he’d carried around with him daily for the last 2 years. I can’t yet comfortably sit in my office and do things the way I used to sit on the couch and churn stuff out.
But fear not, I should have something up by the end of today. Stay tuned! Thanks for everybody that played, I hope everybody that’s left a comment knows they just got entered into the contest 🙂
Ok, I know there are folks out of there who are mad crazy fans of the move 10 Things I Hate About You, either for the Shakespeare or the Heath Ledger, I’m not sure which.
You folks will be happy to learn that ABC Family is going to attempt a series out of it. Of course, it won’t have Shakespeare (if he didn’t write a sequel to Shrew, what can ya do?) and it won’t have Heath Ledger.
