Word Handler is the professional brainchild of Mark Guenette.
After a bilingual French-English primary and secondary education, Mark attended Princeton and Columbia Universities, earning a B.A. in Comparative Literature at the former, and a Ph.D. in the same field at the latter. His interests include cooking, opera and ballet, ice hockey (go Canucks!), baseball (go Rangers) and that unique phenomenon known as Disney (let it go Elsa.). A confirmed anglophile, he has led the Kosher British Revival (his syrup sponge pudding will convince you that steamed puddings can be delicious.) French-educated, he can still recite snatches of Phèdre and Le Cid, thinks in five-paragraph essays, and has actually made the pâté en croûte with the boned duck at the end of Mastering the Art of French Cooking.
Languages other than English and French include Spanish, Italian and German. He has an smattering of several other languages, including some of those written in the Hebrew and Cyrillic alphabets, and discovered on a recent assignment that he understands written Dutch and Danish. Like many a professional writer, he started to write what he expected would be his first novel when he was seven, and has completed several of them since. He also maintains a fictitious blog about the advenures of his blue-eyed alter ego, Hunter Block (hunterblocksblog.com). These experiences in fiction, while enjoyable in the extreme, taught him that writing fiction is a hobby, not a vocation, and led him to come up with the idea of a service which would string words together for people who don’t, can’t, or just plain old won’t write.
