Back to Work

Returning to my regular work today was difficult. Of course, the morning was spent greeting colleagues and cleaning off my desk. So it was not until right at the end that I got around to some actual editing. The feeling walking up to the front door was bittersweet--familiar, comfortable . . . but required. (That's the bitter part.)

I received word back from my new freelance writing job for a Christian magazine publisher that my piece was accepted with only minor adjustments. (And most of those were style issues--I'm not used to theirs yet.) One suggestion I made turned into a second (very small) assignment, so that was a pleasant surprise.
