Welcome to WordsmithPHD.

Born of democratic truths. 

 

It seems that truth is no longer based on objective reality. As both a citizen and social scientist, the need to speak truths, in support of our democracy, has seized me. Thus, my words here, both in Word Puzzles and my longer essays, Written Words, seek to help build a more inclusive, rational and just society. 

 

A personal note. It is ironic that I use words to express my truths, as I struggle with dyslexia. Thus, I request grace for flipped or forgotten letters or words.

WORDS MATTER – (36).

Using words and numbers, I lean into TENACITY as I craft visual TRUTHS – (45). As a SOCIAL and CULTURAL SCIENTIST – (47)           I build CREATIVE, HONEST, and INSIGHTFUL – (57)             politically inspired puzzles.Then because WORDS MATTER – (36),     I write discerning essays to accompany each puzzle. 

Still, what matters most – and scores the highest –  is how “We the People” use our CREATIVE, HONEST, INSIGHTFUL – (57) energy, as we continue our work “to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility.”   (The United States Constitution)
