I Bequeath Thee has a dictionary of Old English Words. Go through the list and pick out words that attract your inner ear. Say the words out loud then for your physcial ear. Could you use those in your regular writing? A dearth of them in the midst of  overmany words would be barely noticeable.

Want more? I found the Modern English to Old English Vocabulary.

Word Grrls is my mad science experiment, my adventures with fame and world domination (politely). This is where I inspire people to create: invent mutations, cause change, bring colour into your world. Web writer since 1998. Find me on StumbleUpon , and Tumblr.
