About the Blog
-
In today’s frantic world, there isn’t much time for anything, and yet there’s always a moment to procrastinate! A Word About Writing is designed to offer you a few minutes of literary distraction every Monday and Friday (a perfect way to bookend your week).
Stop by the blog on Mondays for brief chats about writing with some of today’s award-winning and bestselling writers. These interviews are also available on Tumblr and at www.slicemagazine.org.
On Fridays, you’ll learn about a word that originated in a book. Every now and then, a writer comes up with a new word for his or her story. Sometimes these words catch on, moving from fiction to everyday speech. If you would like to see a particular word featured on the blog, send me an email at celia (a) slicemagazine (dot) org.
