Wow this is quite some list! I checked out the wiki list of Fossil words- intriguing, and I actually looked up dudgeon: furious, indignant. And given your ta-da list, idk how you manage to put this fabulous newsletter together! Brava!
Every month there's a pretty big list . . . it's kind of overwhelming how much information is out there. And this is only a fraction of the articles that are out there each month on publishing/writing topics!!
Wow! Keep it going, Val. Oh, and P.S., I don't think it was intentional, but you use the phrase "without further adieu". Even with the fancy French spelling, that phrase (ado) is first on the Fossil Word list!

Ha! and yes, it should have been the non-French spelling that I used!
