Peggy Hazelwood+ is a word nerd who has worked as a reporter, proofreader, technical editor, freelance copy editor, and freelance writer for a long, long time.
Peggy was recently awarded the Editor's Choice Award for these articles:
With a short attention span, Peggy likes variety. She worked as a cold set typesetter and did layout and paste up (in the olden days) then worked as a desktop publisher, edited environmental engineering reports and proposals, edits textbooks, has made and sold jewelry and crafts, owned a retail bead store, and wrote a typically long, boring autobiographical first novel (no, it's not been published).
Online Writing
One of Peggy's favorite pastimes is to write one word at a time playing Wordscraper, Word Drop, and PathWords on Facebook.
