After the release of my first book, "Word by Word: The Secret Life of Dictionaries," I got an email from a random dude that just said, "Don't you mean 'Word _For_ Word'?" I don't, didn't, and evermore won't, my guy!

If you see this, please tell me the worst/most baffling bit of creative feedback you've ever recieved. Mine is still the time somebody told me my aliens had names that were too alien. Not that they were unpronounceable, just that they didn't sound enough like human names.

Imagine having the self-confidence to assume that you’ve thought more deeply about word choice than a professional lexicographer.
