I love words. I love the way they fit together like puzzle pieces, each having a different part of a word picture. I love how a skilled wordsmith can craft an image using only a few hushed syllables of poetry and hover over them to create a new work of art in letter and silence and sound. Silversmiths take the same care making stunning bracelets.
I love that red is different than scarlet is different than crimson. Each word has a specific meaning, and should be used with care. This does occasionally mean I am overly specific when communicating. I like for words to convey precisely what I mean and/or exactly what happened. However, if the answer to a question needs to be a simple yes or no, then I am very bad at that.
