Why You Need One
My Flip Dictionary is my most powerful writing resource. I use it constantly and consistently when writing prose, poetry, fiction, articles, letters, and sometimes even grocery lists!
This book is helpful for when you just can't think of the right word you want to use. It acts as a memory guide or a way to freshen up your vocabulary. The Flip Dictionary takes you from a word you know the meaning of to the word you want to use.
I find it indispensable for clear writing and finding specific words. It can be used for business writing as well as pleasure in addition to being a great help to anyone who loves doing crossword puzzles.
It's also a wonderful tool for Baby Boomers and women who suffer memo-pause. I use mine everyday. I think you will too!
For when you know what you want to say but can't think of the word.

You know what you want to say, but you can't think of the word. You can describe what you're thinking but you don't know the name for it. Flip Dictionary comes to the rescue!
Best-selling author Barbara Ann Kipfer has created a huge reference that offers cues and clue words to lead writers to the exact phrase or specific term they need. It goes beyond the standard reverse dictionary format to offer dozens of charts and tables, listing groups by subject (such as automobiles, clothing types, plants, tools, etc.)
For example: want to know the term for the curved wooden beams that form the ribs of a ship? Look in the alphabetical listing to find "ship, curved timbers forming rib of: futtock." Then look at the table of sailing terms to find the names of other parts of a ship, as well as types of ships.
Flip Dictionary is an excellent reference for everyone. Writers of fiction and non-fiction will use it to find that elusive word they need, and word lovers will find it an entertaining book to simply sit and browse through. Crossword puzzlers will also find it invaluable. An indispensable desk reference, as necessary as a dictionary or thesaurus, but a whole lot more fun.
Why I Love My Flip Dictionary
As a writer who is also approaching ...As a person who is of Baby Boomer age ...
As a women entering Memo-pause ...
Okay ...
Lets just say I'm just not as young as I used to be and sometimes while I'm writing I lose my words. I don't know where they go. They just seem to disappear somewhere between my thinking them up and my putting them on the page. The Flip Dictionary always helps me find those mysteriously vanishing words and sometimes it even helps me find better ones.
By listing not only single words, but also common phrases, The Flip Dictionary makes it easy to get the perfect word for whatever I'm writing about, every single time.
