The Words You Can't Spell

[damselfish]

Anybody have the words they can't spell?

Maybe you know how it's spelled, you just can't type it out.

I'm finally getting around to writing up a retelling of "Prince Lindworm" I mentioned back in December, where I wondered how you get two sons from eating a red rose that'll give you a son and a white rose that'll give you a daughter. Sure, I can see getting a monster out of the mix, but this magical math is not adding up for me.

Turns out, I cannot for the life of me type "shepherdess." It's always sehpherdness.

This is a problem in a story where I decided nobody should have a name and the main character is "the shepherdess."
