The prompt was chore. Happy Sunday. Got an edit to finish, a sensitivity read to start, and a series to plan. Maybe I'll do some laundry and write something on my own book for a change... Is anyone wanting a cuppa?

Absolutely delighted to have an essay in this book. It's a treasury of editorial insight!
