CRAIG CONLEY (Prof. Oddfellow) is recognized by Encarta as “America’s most creative and diligent scholar of letters, words and punctuation.” He has been called a “language fanatic” by Page Six gossip columnist Cindy Adams, a “cult hero” by Publisher’s Weekly, a “monk for the modern age” by George Parker, and “a true Renaissance man of the modern era, diving headfirst into comprehensive, open-minded study of realms obscured or merely obscure” by Clint Marsh. An eccentric scholar, Conley’s ideas are often decades ahead of their time. He invented the concept of the “virtual pet” in 1980, fifteen years before the debut of the popular “Tamagotchi” in Japan. His virtual pet, actually a rare flower, still thrives and has reached an incomprehensible size. Conley’s website is OneLetterWords.com. |

"I hope you don't take this the wrong way — but you really have beautiful eyes."
"This may surprise you, but it's true — the first reader can usually tell within 10 pages whether or not the writer has what it takes." —
"[Robert] Frost writes that a 'rose is a rose, / And was always a rose.' He then goes on to explain that the 'theory now' is that it is not only the rose that is a rose, but the apple and pear and plum, too."
