QI - which interesting dead person are you?
I am Mary Kingsley, Victorian explorer and writer. Sounds about right. Some of these things are crap, but this one's good.

I did some work on The Surfing Tribe, which is out now. It's turned out amazing. It's such an epic bit of work, so many facts and figures, stories collated, never-seen photos sourced. It caused untold amounts of heartache, rows and headaches, but now it's here, I'm proud to have had a (small) hand in it.Labels: subbing
"What is the Headline Analyzer?
This free tool will analyze your headline to determine the Emotional Marketing Value (EMV) score."
Cool huh? I must be a pretty poor copywriter, because I'm not getting very high scores! And I'll admit, I was actually looking for a headline generator. When your editor has decided that a good title for an article about Europe would be, er, 'Europe' and you have to think something up at the last minute, boy would a headline generator be useful. I'll keep looking…otherwise I might have to use my brain, and it's not co-operating today.
Oh this is fun too - word association. I had it passing after 105. (Why do my threads always turn to filth after about 20? Hmm.)
