WOOOOHOOO! We Launched!
Well, here it is. I can’t believe we’ve launched, finally.
In the next few days I’ll explain why this is so important to me – why it’s sparked my passion, and what I’m thinking about doing with the site – plus information about the books I’m planning and more. Basically though, I’m here to ‘serve’ as your forensic linguist.
What is forensic linguistics anyway?
Forensic linguistics is, at (one of ) it’s most basic forms, the criminological study of language. It’s the way the police and those in legal institutions use language, and how linguists can help them. (though, to be fair, it’s all broad strokes, and isn’t really as pithy as I’d like 
)
My interest in it is specifically in tracking the unique areas of language that each of us have, and supporting the tracking and prosecutions of specific types of crime, alongside the more ‘mundane’ art of using elements of forensic linguistics and it’s understanding in our writing, every day, and in every document and item we create.
What you’ll find on the blog
Discussion about writing, discussion about copywriting, information on forensic linguistics, book reviews and white papers from the field, and writing and information about how I get into the career specifically. Hopefully you’ll also find conversation and information that you need to support your writing. I look forward to chatting with you about it.
