저자는영어교육분야에서학생들에게영어글쓰기나말하기를지도하다문법적인오류만큼이나어휘선택에있어서단어를혼동하는것을자주목격하게되었다.그리고이런단어들을틈틈이메모해두었다가학생들뿐만아니라영어어휘공부에관심있는일반독자들과도공유하면흥미로울것이라생각해서2015년도에《한국식영어바로잡기:ConfusingWords》를집필했다.그이후8년만에어휘의비교,대조에초점을맞추어《Confusingwords2:영어어휘의미묘한속뜻차이》가세상밖으로나오게되었다.

영어를뛰어넘어야할허들이나어려운대상이아니라,알면알수록흥미로운언어로접근하기를바라는저자의마음이많은독자에게전달되었으면하는바람이다.
