Ahoy, me hearties!
A year ago, I started this blog while lazily drinking rum and steering my pirate ship on a spring afternoon whose heady brightness made anything seem possible. And then I totes abandoned it. What can I say, except that pirates are busy people? We’ve got so many ships to hijack, treasure to bury and subsequently unbury, pirate classes to take… But we’ve been reading book blogs the whole time, wishing heartily that we could get back in on the action. Luckily for us sea-faring folk, Nymeth at things mean a lot posted a challenge that’s perfect for us! Since I took a class on British Fiction of the 1930s in pirate school this semester, I’ve already got a vast treasure chest full of loot, ready to be plundered for this challenge! Plus, since I was so busy with all the rest of my pirately duties as well as my 8 other pirate classes, I didn’t manage to read a couple of the required books, so this is the perfect opportunity! Seeing as the exam is on Wednesday, and all.
So, here I go, me maties!
With love from your captain,
bill
Pirate school, eh? Where do I enrol?
Welcome to the challenge 
There’s a first year rum and maggoty-biscuit party for new pirate-students coming up! It’s at yarrrrrr o’clock on the poop deck.
Thanks, I’m looking forward to it! But my real question is: will there be booty?
