Just a short post today as I had something else planned and it wasn’t another reference to a Britney Spears song. As you may remember, my new book £xcluded Voices was released on Monday and within hours it reached number one in its Amazon section. I didn’t expect that in anyway as I know it’s… Continue reading Oops, I did it again!

My new book cover and blurb for my £xcluded Voices book.

I thought I would share the book cover for my upcoming new book.

My New Book – Straight from the Horse’s Mouth : 100 Idioms, their Meanings and Origins

Today is one of those wonderful days that can be the highlight of my creative year, the launch day of my latest book.  I’ve always enjoyed words and sayings, some of them archaic that seemingly make no sense to us today.  The history of language and word usage is the history of us.
