Chuck Norris and more

UP, CHUCK: I've always liked Chuck Norris, and I love plays on words. If you're Chuck-tough, you might check out a web site that gives a Chuck Norris fact for each of his 70 years. If you're sensitive, though, you might pass it by.

FREELANCE NETWORK: You might check out my Freelance Writers and Editors network on Yahoo! It's a small network, but it's busy.

COMMENTS: Thanks for all of the recent comments. I hope to get many more of them.

BLOGS: If you have an editing or writing blog (or if you have a particular entry you're proud of), let me hear about it. It doesn't even have to be a writing or editing blog. I just like good writing. Thanks.

Worth checking

BLOG TO TRY: You might check out Susan Mary Malone's blog, Editorial Tips - The Blog. Her most recent entry is on first-person narrative.

TODAY'S WORD: Hubris (also hybris) means extreme haughtiness or arrogance. Hubris often indicates a loss of touch with reality and overestimating one's own competence or capabilities, especially for people in positions of power.
