Okay, folks, we made it through last week relatively unscathed, so we're going in on the sequel!

This is in the oven for dinner: a high-protein "sloppy joe" casserole. I made half the recipe, so we will have leftovers for two lunches.
I would love to provide an outside link, but the creator apparently has no separate site. Sorry, folks.

Ad: "Just one Clorox Disinfecting Wipe cleans up to 50 feet"
Line up, kids. I have a nearly full container of 'em.

For fans of language, colors, dictionaries, names, and words in general, Kory Stamper's new book is in pre-order status!
The title in the actual link above is different from the one on the cover art. I believe the artwork shows the final title (True Colors).
Kory spent many years at Merriam-Webster, working to define words for their dictionary. She will tell you that the smallest words are almost always the most difficult to define, like "to" and "at." If you ever have the chance to hear her speak, take it.

IF you are a fiction writer, especially of genre fiction, and
IF you would like to work with a professional editor who eschews the use of AI for writing or editing, and
IF you have a final draft sitting somewhere, that's been read by your trusted team of beta readers (you do have beta readers, don't you?), whether it's a short story or a 150K-word novel,
THEN
I might be the editor you're looking for. My specialties are SF/F, historical, horror, thriller, action/adventure, and weird (think William Hope Hodgson, Lovecraft, Blackwood, etc.). It's horror but not pure. It's . . . weird.
Yes, I'm mostly retired, but I'm not gone. I'd love to work with the right client! I've edited for clients around the world, so no worries if you're not in the US (I envy you, these days).
Maybe that is you.
