I had some fun recently playing word games with a friend on Substack. Or at least I had fun. He may have just rolled his eyes.
The object of the game is to tell a 50-word short story, substituting homonyms wherever possible. The one with the most homonyms wins!
I road out from the castle gaits, eager too escape my boredom. The heir was brisk and maid my cheeks and knows redden with the chill. As I eased into a gallop, my hart beet rapidly with the thrill. Two bad it was knot reel.
I half two stop reeding romance novels,
14 out of 52 = .269
Any won else want to try? Put yore story and score in the comments. Bonus if ewe put a rhyme or to in.

Joel, i find it hard to read with so many homonyms included. To my ear some of what you wrote sounded like Shakespeare. True?
What eye wants one
(butt sum how lost)
did flea aweigh
wear aye whist knot
It tor aweigh
a peace of hart
eye wood knot spare
ore with all part
Aye comb thee sans
four memories passed
an flex of hopes
witch wood knot last
What lyes in store
won can knot say
butt fines it out
as woks thee rout
of life's grate weigh
