Sally Hoelscher

Over the last forty years I have had multiple professions, including pharmacist, research assistant, at-home mom, adjunct professor of Pharmacology, children's ministry director, and freelance writer. I'm currently enjoying writing this blog, constructing crossword puzzles, and being on the editing team of Lil AVCX. I live in the crossword-friendly state of IOWA.

Think of this button as a TIP JAR. This site is ad-free and available to all. Writing this blog brings me joy. If you enjoy reading the blog, I'm delighted. If you wish to support the blog financially, that's a bonus. If you read a post you particularly enjoy, or you find that reading this blog adds value to your day, feel free to leave a tip. I'm grateful for any support.(Always optional - truly! And always appreciated - definitely!)
