This Week's Check In

It's time for this week's writer check in.

Inspired by [livejournal.com profile] merentha13's suggestion of an online slang dictionary, I thought I'd include a few other Brit checking resources:
  • List of British word not widely used in the U.S. (Pretty much as advertised, a big long list of Brit-specific words)
  • U.K. vs. U.S. spelling (For when you're debating using "ise" or "ize")
  • Dictionary of English Slang (This one's my personal fave)

    And inspired by my own incipient panic, how about a poll on how we're all doing:
    [Poll #1737374]

    Bodie and Doyle are very curious to hear how you're all doing...

    Research for what? *bats eyelashes in fetching but confused fashion*

    Another group of awfully nice strangers keep telling me I have a 10,000 word... "rough draft" I believe they called it, due in a different "fandom" -- why does everyone have to use jargon -- by the 28th of May.

    I think you'd better make that a double...

    One can only hope...
