Hope Darby Writings

Are you tired of the English language being overtaken by etymological atrocities like, “sexting,” “staycation,” “tweetup,” and “turducken”? Would you like to do your part in saving words that are so infrequently used, they’re in danger of becoming extinct?

Then do your part! Join the fight for vocabulary by adopting these neglected words, and use them as often as you can! Go to www.SavetheWords.org and adopt yours today!

Or, if you prefer the simplistic version: absence makes the heart grow fonder. If the maxim is true, then you all should be head-over-heels in love with me! I do apologize for my disappearance. Injury, illness, travel, and general “meh” kept me away. But rest assured, I have returned. Exciting, no?
