National Book Award winner Barry Lopez had wise advice for young writers. First, read widely and follow your curiosity. Second, travel or learn a foreign language.

Maybe a college administrator named Dean , or a breadmaker named Baker ? Well, there’s a name for that concept: nominative determinism .

All that, and the flowery language of seed catalogs, rank and file , cut me a husk , I am sat down vs. I am sitting down , Lead on, MacDuff! vs. Lay on, MacDuff! , a hematological puzzle, and a popular Spanish-language refrain about an extremely long goodbye.
