As tradition dictates, every tenth day at ConWorkShop, the theme of the day is No theme!. And as I promised ten days ago, I would be doing nihilism. I chose not to dress all in black, or to put on gothy makeup or anything, but I did coin the word for ‘nihilism’. It’s a straightforward compound of ‘nothing’ + ‘-ism’. And as a bonus, I also derived the adjective ‘nihilistic’ from it.
