We're gobsmacked by all sorts of praise this week:

The Serif of Nottingblog covers our eccentric illustration of the "punctuational theory of evolution," whimsically saying, "[T]he Abecedaring lexiconleyjurer and abcderial visualist, Craig Conley ... is an astonishingly inabecedefatiguable creator and investigator of the world of language: written, visual, and conceptual."

Anima Tarot covers our short talk on magician Jeff McBride's secret of mastering time: "[A] presentation given by magic scholar and linguist extraordinaire, Craig Conley ... greatly increased my admiration for the artistry of this gifted magician [McBride]."

Speaking of that short talk, Martha delightfully tells us we remind her of her favorite professor from college, who could find Greek gods in butter ads!  And Ferdinando suggests that our soft-spoken yet confident style recalls someone "channeling a 'higher entity.'"

The ever-intriguing Social Fiction kindly covers our diagram of all history contained in a single note of music.

And belated thanks to Steve Vander Ark's Harry Potter Lexicon for calling our Magic Words: A Dictionary "a very impressive collection of magic words from all over the world."
