What is LL Word?

LL Word is my home on the web. The title comes from my initials as well as my primary interest in life and work: words. Not only do I do my work in words, but I’m also fascinated by the ability words have to shape our reality. That’s why I treat them with such precision and thoughtfulness.

I believe in sharing, not hoarding, knowledge, wisdom, and opportunities. That’s why I blog here about what I’ve learned as an editor and writer, what I’m working on, and what opportunities exist for writers and editors. I hope you’ll find this blog useful regardless of where you are on your writers’ journey, and I’d love to hear from you.

All best,

Lacey
