Sisyphean [sis-uh-FEE-uhn]

- Extremely difficult to the point of futility.
- Relating to Sisyphus, king of ancient Corinth.

Used in a sentence:
“The struggle to keep these third graders in their seats and focused on their studies is downright Sisyphean!”

Something else marked by @woodvinewrites.bsky.social in her copyedit of THE TRUE COST OF WOOL: a couple instances where she said, "Word will tell you this needs to be corrected, but Word is wrong."
copy editors are better at copy editing than llms and it's not particularly close

We're in the final round of edits for @longwayhomestead.bsky.social's THE TRUE COST OF WOOL. At this particular section of the book the author, copyeditor and I had an exchange within a query (comment), which @woodvinewrites.bsky.social did indeed end with "elbows up." This book is a balm.
I didn't grow up in Canada so I don't know but did y'all learn about this treaty in school? Pretty sure I never heard about it in school in the U.S. Anyway I learned about it editing @longwayhomestead.bsky.social's book, in the part about the history of the Canadian wool industry.
