Suitcase Words
I have always loved words. One of the reasons to compose this book was an understanding of the meaning and power of words, which has been growing in me for years. Since seventh grade English, I have understood the concept of the economy of words. Hemingway's novels were taught as an example of speech economy. In college, a professor spoke about cutting down excess words. Like peeling an orange or cutting hair too long, cutting down excess verbiage gives me pleasure. Some people like to do crossword puzzles; I like to edit. Anyway, suitcase words are packed with meaning. In one word, one can express a philosophy or a complete idea. More and more in society, suitcase words are being used.
