Meet Ada Clare. Bonus points if you figure out who I named her after.
Anyhoo, my biggest fear inspired by this cute ball of black fur was my first night with her. Last night. Yes, my eyes are bloodshot and I'm a little tired because of the whole 5 a.m. potty excursion. Such is life with a puppy. But at least I'm over the fear of the first night because, well, it's over. I know. Irrational right?
I'm not the only one. Here are a list of a few writerly fears that maybe you've encountered. . .
graphophobia = the fear of writing
bibliophobia = fear of books
logizomechanophobia = fear of computers
dimnaliphobia = fear of pens
papyrophobia = fear of paper
phobophobia = fear of fear
Epistaxiophobia- Fear of nosebleeds (yeah, I know, not writing related but it's a fun word)
If you're really getting into this, check out The Phobia List to find out even more. Ada and I are going to snuggle for now.

You quite? Hmmm....I think you meant quit. I hope you got that nap, because I believe you truly need it. ;-)
Your new family member is adorable. Ah yes, the puppy stage, I remember it well. My dogs still have accidents in the house (some I think are on purpose). Ada Clare has such a sweet face...I will be praying that she grows up sweet and stays that way. Unless she needs to protect your family; our sweeties are allowed a mean side in times such as that. Have a great week! Hugs and God bless.
Wow. You're right. Not only am I tired, but Ada keeps trying to chew on the keyboard. I'll have to pop into edit and fix that. And I should probably start paying you an editor fee, eh?
Haha, now people will wonder what I was talking about.....but I like how you changed it. :-)
So sweet:)
Difficult words to digest;)
