This is…
A pedant's-eye view of writing, the web, and the world in general. Born-and-bred word nerd and aspiring sub-editor survives law degree with the aid of etymological, orthographical and typographical diversions. Throws down newspapers in a typo-induced frenzy. Embargoes products based on incorrectly punctuated packaging. Enjoys fixing poor grammar, errant punctuation, incorrect spelling and obscure syntax (often self-committed). Likes: Helvetica & etymology. Does not like: 'LOL' or Comic Sans MS. Words are nice: Explore the penumbra. Verisimilitude. Vague and Nebulous. Progeny, Cogency & Delphic Catharsis.Tweet (v.)
