The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows is a collection of invented words. The author, John Koenig, strives to fill a hole in the language--to give a name to emotions we all might experience but don't yet have a word for. Each of these intricate words has a story behind it, so I think it makes a perfect writing challenge. Are you ready to delve deeper into the English language? 

NOTE: I did not come up with any of the words or definitions in this book, all credit gooes to John Koenig. I've simply gathered a few of my favorite in here.All Rights Reserved
