made with love
and indignation
WordNerds is currently light-heartedly orienting around the em dash, but this is mostly symbolic.
The conversation around AI, literature and creativity is a serious one.
And it has only just begun.
👋 I'm Canadian author and original WordNerd Erin Steele.
Having recently found myself—like many of you—with eight hesitant fingers on keys, second-guessing (sometimes even replacing!) my most beloved punctuation mark...
...because (of all things) despite being a lifelong writer, I now have to worry about being side-eyed about AI, I decided to channel my indignation into WordNerds.
WordNerds is a sassy army, if you will, of those who believe that the human element of creation matters.
All our tees are soft, quality, priced fairly and ready for your utmost comfort as we tread through this discomfort-laden world together.
As fun as it is to sling tees and stand together, our north-star vision is to host conversation and community as we together navigate what it means to be a writer, thinker and human being in the age of AI.
Giving back and sustainability
- Our textiles are produced under humane conditions with fair wages and ethical standards
- Every month, we will donate a percentage of earning to literacy initiatives like Dolly Parton's Imagination Library
Thanks for supporting a small business in the digital age!
