edit data

Addison L. Jones is a freelance writer and editor living in southeastern Pennsylvania. She has published several nonfiction books for young adults and has edited hundreds of books and teaching materials.

A book nerd from an early age, she has always been drawn to long books -- after all, the longer the book, the longer the reader gets to stay in that particular literary world, whether real or imagined. Luckily for her readers, she isn't anywhere near as long-winded as the authors she likes to read herself.

Although she has been a writer since the time she could first pick up a pen (Addison Jones was the annoying kid in class who cheered when the teacher gave out a long writing assignment), Eye of Horace is her first novel.

To combat that, I make myself write at least one sentence every day, whether I'm inspired or not, whether I'm in the mood or not. Most of the time, even one short sentence is enough to make me want to keep going. If not, I move on to something else--research, whatever--and come back to the writing the next day, and I'm almost always ready to go. (less)

Where Have All the Manners Gone?

Look, I may have plenty of negative qualities, but I’m no prude. I can trade insults with the best of them and swear like a sailor on shore leave.

But call me crazy if I think it’s wrong for 6-year-olds to be doing the same. And that’s exactly what I heard as I passed the local day camp at the elementary school this morning:

Two tiny children (I’m being GENEROUS by calling them 6-year-olds; they c Read more of this blog post »
