The articles that have appeared in online e-zines are available to read free of charge on the respective websites of the publications. However, the advantages of purchasing an article directly from this website are many:

1. Each article costs only 99p to read.

2. You get to read the original article instead of the edited piece that was published in the magazine. This will give you a feel of the original language, style and voice without restrictions of publication style, issue themes or possible editorial prejudice.

3. You will receive the article straight to your Inbox, saving you time and energy in hunting for it on the Internet or going out to a bookstore to buy it.

4. The article is in a safe and accessible pdf format, and well presented. Most articles contain a fun cartoon featuring Debora, the mascot of Verbolatry. And who can resist her?! :-)
