Dear Eloqwatti,

The time has come for me to stop updating Loqwacious every morning and to move on to other adventures.

The last day for the game will be Saturday, December 15, 2012. If anyone wants to take over from me I will happily provide him or her with the necessary information to do so.

Thank you all for playing so faithfully for 2 1/2 years. May your tweets continue to inspire and create.

Blessings,

Maryse aka @Wifsie

ON VACATION

Dear Eloqwatti,

I am taking a break from running the Loqwacious blog. It takes time and effort to keep it running and I've noticed that most of you prefer to stay on Twitter, where I will continue to provide a daily word with its definition.

Feel free to post comments and suggestions here as I will keep checking this post on a regular basis.

Thanks.
