![]() Unsurprisingly, Hillbillyholiday is not my real name. some know me as "Sketch" for reasons we won't get into, others call me "the Cat" or "the Ninja" for my reckless diving when playing in goal on concrete surfaces, my brother calls me "Mikeypedia", but on Wikipedia, i have been called a "posh southern girl", an "American alien sex fiend", "someone with manners" and many other things.. i am not the Reverend Stuart Campbell.* My first published work was an article on victorian football for the local paper when i was nine, i then waited twenty years before ghostwriting a dissertation entitled (something like) Comparisons between Aphex Twin and the early Futurists. i've had nearly a hundred jobs including librarian, bin-man, bar-man, painter, builder, carpenter, and security-guard for the summer solstice at stonehenge. i've done a bit of busking, squatting, stand-up, released a (ropey) single, plus i'm a beatboxer, poet, you name it i'll have crack at it. i was a janitor at the art college i dropped out of. oh yeah, i've also been a gravedigger and a business-to-business development agent... i preferred being a gravedigger. Amongst other things, i'm crazy about books and only recently bought a computer in order to write one. i recently spent a year reorganizing and colour-coding the English language for a (r)evolutionary new rhyming dictionary.. it's on the back burner at the moment. * Hoots! |

![]() 'fffhp' is the word used to describe the sound made by a snowflake landing upon a bubble. This onomatopoeic neologism was coined by Alex Horne during an episode of Wordaholics, first broadcast by BBC Radio 4 on 10 April 2013. Wordaholics is a comedy panel show hosted by ex-politician and lexicographer Gyles Brandreth, which takes a light-hearted look at the English language. Comedian Horne mentioned the word during a round where Brandreth enjoined his guests to deliver their own "freshly squeezed onomatopoeia" Describing 'fffhp' as a "tear-jerkingly beautiful" word, Horne also provided its somewhat distinctive spelling. Upon hearing 'fffhp', Brandreth declared: "I love it, I absolutely love it!" Writer, comedian and classicist Natalie Haynes, one of Horne's fellow guests on the show agreed, saying that she thought 'fffhp' was beautiful, and that it would be her abiding memory of the show. Brandreth concluded the show by stating: "A new word — you heard it here first." If 'fffhp' fails to gain recognition, it will become what is known as a nonce word, a neologism that is only used for literary effect or in the moment.
