Intro

For Christmas this year I received a day-by-day calendar from my Mom. It is a Hangman Lift-a Flap calendar, and every day I get a new game of Hangman. I get to lift the flap of whatever letter I think is in the word – if it is in the word, it tells me what numbered space I fill in, if not, I get a thumbs down and fill in part of the man being hanged from the gallows. On January 2^nd, I have decided to use it as a tool to practice writing, by writing at least 500 words every day on the topic, provided by the answer to the hangman puzzle.
