Wordly Explorations manifesto

Welcome to Wordly Explorations, a blog exploring how humans use, misuse and sometimes abuse everyday words. There's so much to explore!

From Mary Pipher

 Wordly Inspiration from Mary Pipher, the author of Writing to Change the World:

"A writer's job is to tell stories that connect readers to all the people on earth, to show these people as the complicated human beings they really are, with histories, families, emotions, and legitimate needs. We can replace one-dimensional stereotypes with multidimensional individuals with whom our readers can identify."
