As a copywriter, editor and bookworm I love words.
There are words I want to roll around in my mouth, savour, and say over and over again because they just sound and feel perfect (one of my favourites is “juxtaposition”). A well-crafted sentence has beauty and appeals to my sense of aesthetics. But the hardest thing to do in writing is to share of yourself, to move and give your readers something valuable and lasting, without sounding trite or lecturing. To give your readers something to think about, to try out, to relate to. And to write in your own, very individual voice.
One of the most talented writers I have come across recently is Allison Nazarian. She never fails to hit the spot. But don’t take my word for it; read for yourself.
If you ever had a shitty day – Allison’s latest post is for you!
Enjoy… Until next time,

Hi Alli,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and so honestly and entertainingly.
Have you ever thought to put them in a book?
