Welcome, word-lovers!

• See my blog for more about the all-new "A Way with Words," a show that's about so much more than language. This public radio show, which I co-host with Grant Barrett, is available by podcast. Drop by the blog and let us know what you think!

• Expand your vocabulary. (Or are you already familiar with the lovely English word chatoyant?)

• See my books, as well as nice things said about them in The New Yorker, The Los Angeles Times, and elsewhere.

•Find out about my upcoming appearances.

•Learn more about me.
