Is 8am a reasonable time to disturb your apartment manager? My plans to return to bed were disturbed by nasty backup in my kitchen sink.
Whoa. Good myth.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

8 am is completely within business hours, ita.

And, no answer. Looks like I could have gone as early as 7 am. Apartment stinks, man. That liquid backup is FOUL.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
This week is not starting well.
I left the house at 6:45 this morning to come use the gym at work, only to discover that my key card wouldn't work on the gym door, plus I just realized I am wearing a dress, and I have an appointment with the oncologist, and the first thing they are going to say is "strip to the waist."
eta: and now I have a run in my stockings.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Erin, how about: Erin [last name] Wordsmith.
Cash, that's some mighty ass you're banging around that track. You need to work on your War Face. I want you to practice your grimace in the mirror before the next bout.
Rainy day in SF. Back from taking Emmett to school and have to move the car ahead of the street sweeper. Matilda's out of school as it's on a furlough day.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Erin, I like Hec's suggestion of Wordsmith. Perhaps with some kind of tag about forging, and or a logo with blacksmith tools?
Way to go, Cash's ass!!
Way to go away, Kathy's ass!!

I've thought about Wordsmith, and I like it; my only concern is that there are a lot of wordsmith websites out there.
Would something like Erin ------: Wordsmith be professional and distinctive enough? I don't want to be too complex, twee or esoteric (I told Barb if I had my druthers, I'd be Erin ------, Writing Consigliere, but that's TOO esoteric, but I like it -- literally, a mercenary "lance" for writing. Hee.)
Would a domain name like erin-------wordsmith.org turn you off as a potential client? An email addy like erin-------@erin-------wordsmith.org?

Because books.
I'm worried "wordsmith" has been used a lot by similar professionals. Maybe try riffing off "editorial" or "pen" instead, or use something like:
Erin Lastname, The Last Word ...
...in writing, editing, and research.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I just heard a doctorally prepared professor say to my boss (and my boss agreed with her) that this country is willing to be accepting of all sorts of diversity of belief except Christian, and that they seriously need to consider what this means (is it the work of the devil).
