The International House of Logorrhea

It is exactly what it says:

Did you ever have an English teacher who told you 'Whenever you read something, and find a word you don't know, look it up in the dictionary and write it down'? Well, I took that advice to heart. Of course, once you have a few hundred words down on your list, you think to yourself (if you are as obsessive as I am), 'Wouldn't it be a lot easier if I just read the whole dictionary, so that I could just do this word writing thing once and be done with it?' The result, after nearly a decade of conscientious word-collecting, is the International House of Logorrhea.

Also includes links to other goodies including Scrabble word lists, Lipograms, rare word lists, etc.

From the Globe's online Brainiac column, these recommendations for good writing grammar (or maybe "grammar when writing good".)
