Write an acrostic using the word distraction.
Read all about it here
This is an attempt to fuse the Vocal Acrostic Challenge with the titles of the Acts in the Plays of William Shakespeare.
Also check out the videos by the Reduced Shakespeare Company, the "Othello Rap" is very funny.
See if you can spot the pays where the titles came from (one I had to remove a leading "The" but the rest are all the names of Acts)

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
