Nov 01: #avoidlipo - 50,000 Woofs
~Here's~ This is a crossover NaNoG'nMo / NaNoLiPo ~entry~ admission!
50,000 Woofs
Nov. 1: #avoidlipo -- ~Your text may not contain any "e"s~ Start off with a fairly comfy constraint. It's a day for imitating our old Oulipo pal, Anton Vowl. That most common symbol, our fifth if going from A to Z: don't put it in your writing. Not today, for NaNoLiPo; not any day, for oulipo.social. via
~We~ You and I all know a word containing a fifth symbol.
meow
And ~we~ you and I all know a word not containing a fifth symbol.

~Here~ This is my ~entry~ admission for NaNoG~nMo 2014, 50,000 ~Meows~ Cat Sounds ~refactored (copied and pasted)~ put into 50,000 Woofs.
