E-MAGAZINE

About the e-magazine

The e-magazine appears every Saturday. It is free.

Each issue includes an eclectic mixture of pieces that may focus on words in the news, new words, weird words, book reviews and answers to readers' questions as well as discussions and updates on previous issues. Subscribers read pieces a week before they are added to the website.

You can receive issues in three ways:

Mailing list

RSS

We have three channels available. One (E-magazine) sends out the complete text of the weekly e-magazine each Saturday; a second (Site updates) tells you about new pages that have appeared on the Web site on the same day together with those that have been updated; Mondays to Fridays the third (Word File) sends you a random link to a page on the site. The URLs for the feeds are:
