Flowerst??

I’m glad I’m not the only person who misspells words! The name of the puzzle is “Prairie Wind Flowers.” It’s not misspelled on the box, just the puzzle diagram.

For several years I worked for a publishing company as a copy editor. We learned to train our eyes to catch misspelled words. Some times I’d read the copy backwards so my brain concentrated only on the words, not the sentence. I sure wish we’d had spell check!

As I age I seem to be losing my spelling ability. I now keep a spelling dictionary near me and use Siri quite often to spell a word.

It’s been almost 25 years since I had that job and I still think I have to edit everything I write two or three times!! Seriously, what does it really matter!
