âThen I went off to college and I had to read more novels. It would seem that âThe Great Gatsbyâ by F. Scott Fitzgerald, was foisted on me, but upon reflection, I am glad it was.â I wasn’t expecting an email. I don’t remember registering for any kind of competition. At first, I thought the email was junk mail and I almost discarded it. I receive a lot of junk mail, but for some reason, this one looked different.
So I opened it. And I am glad I did because it brought some good news. It was from Catherine Richardson of Merriam-Webster Dictionary stating that I sentence I wrote was used an example in Merriam-Webster’s word of the day, March 31.
