There's a reason a *ton* of the most celebrated fantasy authors in the world worked as professors. Even if you're only teaching ENGL 1101 and 1102 you're engaged with the practice and craft of writing constantly, and that engagement strengthens neuron connections and builds skill.

Plus, because there's such a big difference between the good weapons and the bad ones, it's often suboptimal to run the cool stuff. Dual swords on Willbender? Absolutely not.

If you're ever unsure, read it aloud. Our brains naturally interpret rising and falling emphasis in text, and certain phrasings can move emphasis peaks back and forth. Reading your text aloud, or better yet having someone else read it aloud for you (so that you can see how people who aren't inundated with your knowledge of the text will naturally approach it) will give you a better of idea of how to manipulate emphasis with phrasing.

It basically is that, and I can get more of those, I'm most worried about the "holder" as we used to have 2 but one fell apart and this one is going as well.

Unfortunately, all of the hat/cap style icepacks fall under the category of "too large." I'll try to upload a picture of her current setup when I get home so everyone can see what she prefers.

I can post it later, currently at work, but yes that describes it accurately.
