The Word Project Links The Word Project's initial words were culled from my subscription to the original "A-Word-A-Day" site. My deepest thanks go to Anu Garg, a fellow traveller on the odd byways of the English language. I also found fascinating words at The Phrontistery, Stephen Chrisomalis's exhaustive compendium. 'Dictionary of Archaic and Provincial Words (Obsolete Phrases, Proverbs, and Ancient Customs from the XIV Century')- Halliwell & Phillipps- like landing in a pot of jam. 'Mrs. Byrne's Dictionary of Unusual, Obscure, and Preposterous Words'- Josepha Byrne Richard Lederer'sThe Verbivore- a witty, funny dive into language. More links to many more & different sites can be found on the Thrums End Links Page. I'm blogging now and talk about words and The Word Project among other things. From the blatant self-promotion department, some other sites I've designed: You might not think my style would work for homebuilder's site:The Joy of Building, but perhaps Mark is just more visionary. You can visit my studio during this year's Saugerties Artists Studio Tour. For a mother's words of wisdom, visit the Official Momilies Site. Michele Slung- Reader, Writer, Editor.
