Compiling more than 300 wonderfully weird wintery words, A Winter Dictionary from North East author Paul Anthony Jones makes the perfect Christmas gift

Living North has teamed up with local author Paul Anthony Jones to offer one lucky Living North reader the chance to win a signed copy of his new book A Winter Dictionary.

Originally from the North East, Paul’s passion for words has inspired a number of his books including The Cabinet of Linguistic Curiosities and Around the World in 80 Words. His newest book, A Winter Dictionary, makes a great companion for the festive season, bringing together unique words that have fallen out of use which describe the winter months perfectly.

Describing everything from a landscape covered with frost (chibbly) or a cat sat happily by the fire (fire-scordel) to huddling together for warmth (croodle) and the peacefulness of Christmas (yule-girth) this makes the perfect gift for the festive season. 

The prize is a signed copy of A Winter Dictionary from Paul Anthony Jones. To be in with a chance of winning this stunning book, simply enter the competition below.
