Thanks for your list of “-INE”-words! Writing is a hobby of mine, and often I feel the desire to ascribe an animal property to something. For example, I just joined YouTube and had to pick a User Name; surprisingly, EweTyoube was not taken! It has both a British (pronunciation of Tyoube) and an ovine flavor. (Not that I am either British or woolly; it was just word-play!)

Thanks for your comment. I always love running into someone who is a fellow word freak! If you get a chance, please check out my Verbs of Perambulation and Vocalization–maybe you can help me fill in some blanks.

I love the links you provide. I’m new to NC and starting a business to promote events. My partner and I are bringing the author SARK(Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy) to the Chapel Hill area Aug.25&26 and I’ve been looking at a lot of writer’s sites. Yours has intrigued me. We have a web site http://www.goddessinbloom.net where you can find details about this event. I especially appreciate the link to get a human when you need to call large companies. I do thank you for that one.

Thanks, Doe! I’m so glad you enjoyed the site. Please come back and visit again.

I was googling my maiden name and apparently we have the same name although I gave up my maiden name over 24 years ago. Just thought you’d like to know that there are at least two of us in the world.

Hi, Liz! Wow, I thought I was probably the only one. My name comes from a German great-grandfather and I’ve never run across it anywhere before. Do you know where yours comes from?

There is inspiration in excellent writing. I have read that writing is not about “ideas,” but is equivalent to constructing a house. I am one of those people who misuse words. A correctly used word can save a lot of unneccessary ones. So I need to be careful the kinds of houses I build.
Thank you.

Thanks for your thoughtful, and thought-provoking, comment. I’m glad if you found something on the site useful. Best of luck with the construction of your word-houses!

Wow! I’m pretty impressed that I managed to get in to this but MORE IMPRESSED with your site. No kidding, I’m quite gob-smacked, as we say in Blighty. I haven’t time to read through all the stuff in detail now but certainly will as and when time allows. You are a star!!!!

Thanks so much for your kind words. I’m glad you like the site and hope you’ll enjoy what you read on it.
