The idea sprang forth slowly and subtly. The need has always been there because we editors scour the internet and books for the proper spelling of certain curse words. A (mostly) all-inclusive US English dictionary was needed, so I created it. And, it turns out, it makes a great gag gift!

A plethora of things...
- I'm currently editing a dark fantasy manuscript.
- A two-month mentoring session with the NW Editors Guild begins today, and I have a Zoom call with my assigned mentee this afternoon.
- I'm almost finished reading "The Savior's Sister," the sequel to "The Savior's Champion," and when I finish, I will leave a review here and on Amazon.
- When I finish the above-mentioned book, I will begin reading a novel assigned to me by the Independent Publishers of New England (I'm one of their judges this year).
- I'm in book consignment negotiations with a couple of bookstores, and I've already sold five copies of my book to a local artisan boutique, and I'll be a vendor at a big local event in November.

Don't overthink it. Just write. Worry about all the little things during the self-editing phase, and what you don't catch then, your editor will. Get the story out of your head and onto paper, so to speak.

Book selfies. I love seeing my book in the hands of my readers, especially when they provide their feedback with their photos.
