Aaaaand - AWESOME work again! We've finished 10 spell-outs of SNORKELLING and started the 11th.

Tawallah | 409 comments I was looking to get in some quick reads. One of my possibilities is a fiction but the characters are referred by their profession? Would this count for character names? Or just forgo the characters for this book?

I don't think it would count - words like Uncle also don't count as character names, even if they're the only term used to refer to the person.

Melindam | 8295 comments Dear Team! Greetings from the Isle of Rhodes.We made the trip, but hubbie was singled out for a random covid test at the airport. Fingers crossed he'll turn out negative and we won't be sent packing. :) But as we were allowed to come to our hotel and it'll take 72hours for the test result, I don't really see the logic behind this kind of process.


message 1029: by Ora (new)

Ora (oeamis) I really don't understand the rules for Covid. A lot of them seem like window dressing. Hope everything goes well and you can enjoy your holiday.
