Welcome to my club for language nerds. I am so glad you are here.
This club is intended to become the space for my Joy-of-Syntax tribe that I mention on page 9 of my big grammar book. This is the space in which I want to actively engage in the ever ongoing process of enjoying and appreciating the power of language. I believe that when we truly appreciate the power of language, we become truly empowered.
This is a new adventure for me and it will be a work in progress.
I am so excited for you to join me.
In February of 2017, my grammar book "The Joy of Syntax & the Zen of Grammar Practice" came on the market. It was and is the book that I would have liked to have had when I started studying English at college in 1984 and when I started teaching grammar at the very same college in 2006.
I have changed a lot since the publication of my first book but I still adore the English language and am fascinated by its syntax.
Language creates realities and either it controls us or we learn to connect with it in healthy ways. This is a long story. I had already understood a lot about the power and the mysteries of language but my understanding and my sense of awe have deepened and broadened. And this is what my current journey is about. I want to travel through my book and see where I might wish to change or add stuff.
My current plan is that I will post videos about my journey and provide updates to my thinking on my YT-channel. In this club here, I will explore questions that fellow travellers might have in response to my videos or while working through my book. I will also create additional study materials.
Currently you will find the following offerings in this club:
Let's see where this journey will lead. I am looking forward to it. Will you join me?
Much love from Frid

Currently you will find the following offerings in this club:
- a map called "start your journey here"
- a place for zoom links for and replays of monthly Zoom meetings;
- a space for pdfs and videos that I will create and post as I journey through my own book;
- an online version of my book;
- my little booklet on English Tenses called "English Tenses in Color"
Let's see where this journey will lead. I am looking forward to it. Will you join me?
