Visitors to The Life Literary are in for some fun. TLL readers will have the chance to enjoy words and be ennobled by all things literary. From essays to word plays, poetry to puns, literary events, daily sentences, narratives, and more, TLL will encourage and model a literary life. To live literarily is to move toward a life where speaking and reading, listening and looking, eating and playing, and practically all behavior is inspired by words, language, and literature. The natural result of this movement is a deepened, joyful existence.
The Life Literary is not primarily aimed at the literary professional: writers, journalists, educators, editors. It is aimed at the literary amateur, like its author, whose day job is doing something else, maybe anything but literary, yet who likes (or wants to like) words and wants ways, simple and complex, to move toward a more literary way of living.
