Garner is back on Twitter! Language-interested people can follow him at @BryanGarnerLaw. This picture was taken in January in one of his libraries. It is a magical place FULL of grammar and language books.
some personal news
We are making our first change in our primary dictionary in decades, turning to @MerriamWebster as our first source. We announced our new partnership today at the @ACESEditors conference. We will officially make the transition when we publish our new print edition May 29.
@ChicagoManual I kinda do know the difference, and I kinda wish I didn't
In Dallas last week I visited @BryanAGarner and his private library full of grammar books. I am talking about a collection so large that it includes many dozens of copies just of influential grammarian Lindley Murray's work. This was an absolute library feast.
I'm leaving X! If you'd like to come along as I write and indie-publish children's books, consider signing up for my free monthly Writer, Editor, Helper email newsletter. "I make mistakes so you don't have to." And thank you all for a wonderful 14 years! gmail.us20.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=40…
