The brainchild of Arlee Bird, at Tossing it Out
|
When someone says they have a voracious ANYTHING, that makes me stop and pay attention. The word conjures up images of Tom Jones and his eating habits
or Tyrannosaurs Rex and his.
If someone tells me they’re a voracious reader I picture them buried under a pile of books . . . some of them mine. Dream on, Lee!
So what are you voracious about in your life? I’m thinking I should go gobble up something about now. I’ve given myself a voracious appetite.

I think this is a fun word and I love the images you conjured up in my mind. π

I'm voracious about chocolate!
I'm rather weirdly voracious about TV and movies. I watch all the time, although even with a zillion satellite channels, sometimes I can't find anything good to watch. But that's okay – I'll watch bad stuff. π
Books, Thai food, and chocolate.
Old movies, old radio shows, books of all sort….and coffee…lots of coffee π
Books and ice cream. π
Can I be a voracious procrastinator?
A great word, similar to ravenous, which brings up the same connotations. Now, I'm veracious about getting the word out about my book and getting it into many people's hands. Writerβs Mark
I love the word 'voracious.' I'd like to see a few of my books in that voracious reader's stack, too π
A writer's dream!
I'm voracious about books – reading and writing them. I would add tea to the list too, because it's very difficult to function without it!
Anything that helps with the writing is good.
I guess I'm voracious about my daydreams/writing and astronomy. The things I do for both…
That first photo looks like a young William Shatner. That would make me voraciously romantic. π
I can't imagine a better combination of things to be voracious about.
I'm voracious about my music and live performances!!
Writer In Transit
Music is the best when you can hear it live.
I'm voracious about roller coasters – riding them and knowing everything about them.
Knowing about them I can do. Riding them is another matter.
Books and movies mostly. Still love to disappear into another world. after all these years.

Moody Writing
Wanting to disappear into another world is understandable. More and more I like to pretend I'm elsewhere.
Lovin' all the people who say they're voracious readers. I finish reading about a book every other day. Do I count? π
You get A+ in my class!
Hi Lee .. I'm voracious to finish off my posts sitting to be read .. the list never seems to go down …
It's a fun voraciousness … cheers Hilary
Books! And chocolate. I'd eat it all the time if I could. Yum!
Chocolate's a good food for you–not as good as broccoli but good.
I'm definitely voracious about books.
Of course you are!
I'm voracious about nothing particular. I dabble here and there. I do love food though. π
We need people who sample. Good for you.
that t-rex picture is funny – I guess I am a voracious reader, though lately it is more a voracious sleeper, I can't get enough! Weird, that doesn't really feel like it makes sense. Voracious appetite for sleep? hmmmmm
Sleep? What's that? π
Voracious t-rex? Haha, I like that image.
T-Rex is the poster boy for this word.
I had a bet going with myself that you'd be posting about the word vivacious. I lost, but I don't know which me. When I think of voracious, food certainly does come to mind as well as my dog wolfing down her meal.
Vivacious is a prettier word. Thanks. I think you gave me a compliment, Bish.
Yeah, voracious does speak to food with me.
I'm getting hungry just posting about this word.
I'll go with thinker, like Al did, and add cats to the voracious list. π
Oh, yes. Cats have to be on the list, too.
I have a voracious appetite for buying Kindle books. I have so many lined up it's getting absurd!
A great device!
Voracious. It's such an aggressive yet poetic word. Commands attention. I'm voracious about chocolate and sweet things. Currently, I'm holding a daily STA (sweet things anonymous) meeting each morning to remind myself not to eat everything sweet. π
If you need an intervention call me. I'll get that sweet stuff out of your house for you. π
Well,
WIth me it's all about beauty… of any kind. Flowers, palm trees swaying in a subtle breeze, a child's laughter, a puppy wagging his tail, a moonlit night … that sort of thing.
A voracious romantic!
I'm voracious about creativity and also about nice and hot people π
That's why you love the movies, Dezmond!
I'm voracious thinker. I'm always thinking, always pondering, always riddling and unriddling mysteries and facts of life. Even asleep I'm discussing something.
Dragons are like that. That's what makes them so powerful.
I was actually thinking of using this word for V as well! Such a wonderful descriptor, =)
It's an obvious word choice, but I'm at the end of this marathon and running out of originality.
I'm voracious about my guitar playing! And Hot Tamales.
That's quite a combination, but quite understandable!
