A list of the five best phrases I've come across for strong winds:
5. Blowing half a pelican (Danish)
4. Blowing hats and hay (Norwegian)
3. Blowing a hoolie (Scots)
2. Wind so strong it could blow a pig on to its hind legs (Estonian)
1. It’s only wind when the sheep no longer have curls (German)

Billionaires are using all of their resources to turn underpaid workers against each other, so that you never focus on them, the billionaires.

Our thoughts on the AI in publishing debate; we think there'll be uses for it, in the background, with the mundane, non-creative gubbins that any large industry engenders.
But it should have no place in anything creative or nuanced; not proofreading, editing, designing or narrating.

You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.

Semicolons may be unfashionable; I enjoy them anyway.
Is this true? Has the semicolon gone out of fashion? Do I need to examine my relationship with them? A semicolonoscopy?
When was the last time anyone used a semicolon in a work of fiction?
I haven't in years, if ever.
Pity the poor semicolon. It is to punctuation what flared trousers are to fashion. It had its day, but no one can remember why.
