What a fun year of projects! By the numbers: 13 books for 6 publishers, 6 different curricula projects for 3 clients, 233 articles: health topics and product reviews, and 39 sets of how-to painting instructions. I'm finishing up a book and workbook by Jan. 10, so hit me with your projects for mid-January and beyond!

Today's weird word: Did you know "collage" is also a verb? Try and tell me that "collaging" doesn't look weird, though.

I'm sure this applies to freelancers of many types. For freelance editors to get a raise, they have to find new clients. I have some that haven't changed their rates in the 10+ years I've been working for them. It's a rare client who gives freelancers a raise. This is why freelancers can never relax or feel stable.

In the category of "you never know what you're going to learn on any given day as an editor," I now know what "kicker toys" are for cats.
