It is my belief, completely unfounded, that writers should love words, and not just to use in poetry and prose, but also know how they are used in relationship to their work. And so I thought I would, for a little while, post some words I came upon that may not be particularly useful to you now, but I found interesting. And I encourage anyone else who has a favorite word or phrase to add to the list. I never mean these things to be an entertainment for myself, though it seems often to turn out that way.
