A Dancer Who Walks for a Living - 19 November 2012

from A Way with Words - language, linguistics, and callers from all over · host Martha Barnette and Grant Barrett. Produced by Stefanie Levine.

You dream of writing the great American novel, but to make ends meet, you spend your days writing boring corporate reports. There’s a difference between writing for love and writing for a living — or is there? Does a heyday have anything to do with hay? Did getting dressed to kill originally refer to soldiers? Plus, toad-in-the-hole, deadwoods, due diligence, kibosh, clues, and an election-year word puzzle.  Hear hundreds of free episodes and learn more on the A Way with Words website: ⁠https://waywordradio.org⁠.
