I think this is impossible. Under the best conditions, it will be difficult. Writing the entire thing without use of our first vowel seems ludicrous. It becomes one’s preposterous duty, …shouldn’t be given. Do not let yourself be put into this position. If your instructor requires this of you, plus your peers, I suggest you revolt in the voice of freedom, the prevention of exclusion, in the rights of every vowel. Yes, revolt students. Revolt in the voice of freedom of expression! And avow to allow any A!
Is this a possibility? That is to say, such a task is obviously ludicrous in my opinion. Although only a pupil, I do know my writing ability, and my ability and skills had not formally had such a command from an instructor of diction and composition similar to this in any class—until now, that is. It is ridiculous of our instructor to want such a monstrous paragraph from us, mini-compositions with limitations so constricting. His instruction and law in this appall and disgust us all. It is a firm boundary to my imagination. I hereby refuse to be subjugated and subjected beneath the restricted letter E!
You don’t know me. Equally sure may be that your humble narrator does not know you personally, although he may. Yet we can profess ourselves as comrades and act through protocols of accordance. Are you agreeable to these terms so we act as one, and not as separate souls extant, bound through the darkness to shout aloud screams that have no sound? Perhaps we can rebel to overthrow and usurp such a travesty. Have you the courage to take up arms and employ such a plan? United, you and I can do this: bring back the I into writing, replacing with insurgence ineptitude, gaining for mankind meaningful immortality.
Uhhh, writers must never panic when given any assignment by their teacher. Even a task that seems at first difficult can be indefatigably dispensed with the right-willed strength inherent in every student writer and a determined “Never say die” attitude. As an example, my classmates and I were recently given a writing assignment: five single and ultimately diverse paragraphs, each was required that we utilize an extended absence. That is, in each paragraph, five lines minimum, a single letter that is given as gifted learning during early child-rearing regularly called the alphabet must be excluded. A difficult task such as this requires strength and perseverance. Diligence and well-imagined phrasing are certain. But O God, it is one overwhelming job.
Those readers involved in this post are now offered a challenge. Anyone who deems himself clever and determined can, in time, complete this endeavor. I recommend that he follow the order of English vowels alphabetically as I have demonstrated. It’s easier to keep track was my main reason for doing so. I believe the participant who accepts this proposal and desires to compete may be expecting some reward. I offer none, …I will give none except a brief recognition for effort and interest. And boredom, I reckon. Pick up the gauntlet, gut up to my challenge. You are outstanding; you can do thus.
Write one paragraph, each omitting one English vowel. You then reveal that missing vowel in your final sentence or two.
My topics all regarded this writing challenge. You guys are free to write about anything. But each paragraph must make sense.
I am curious to see who will take me up on this one.
As always, have fun.
