To call Charlottean **Alyssa Pressler** a “logophile” (lover of words) is a colossal understatement. It just isn’t a big enough word to convey how Alyssa feels about the written word. Come to think of it, there may not actually ***be*** a word gargantuan enough to adequately express how much Alyssa loves words. But, if there WERE such a word, we’re betting Alyssa would know it … and love it.

Alyssa is a writer and and editor. She puts her literary talents to work every day as director of marketing at **Hygge**. In our experience, it’s odd to find Alyssa not hard at work writing. But, when you do, you can expect a big smile directed at you — maybe not as big as you’ll see when she’s typing away on her laptop, but still pretty big.

Now, as the owner of **That’s Novel Books**, [which just opened next to Hygge at Camp North End](https://www.thatsnovelbooks.com/), she gets to share her love of words with customers every day.

### This week, we asked her to spare us a few words and answer five ridiculous questions for us.
 And, Alyssa did not disappoint.

**Where’s the best place in CLT (not your home) to snuggle up and read a good book?**
 My bookstore – duh ;)

**If you had to eat one breakfast cereal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be?**
 Cinnamon Toast Crunch. But eggs and toast is where it’s at.

**If you could co-work at Hygge with ANY THREE literary characters, who would they be?**
 Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Easy.

**What’s the weirdest pronunciation for Hygge you’ve heard from someone in CLT?**
 Probably what I kept calling it before I became a member: Hig (like rig) -ee

**You’re a writer, which typo (hopefully, not one here) drive you ABSOLUTELY bonkers?**
 Lately, I keep mixing up “here” and “hear” and it’s extremely frustrating as a snobby writer.

### **And, TWO to grow on:**

**When you need to power through a day of work, what Charlotte treat gets you going again?**
 A latte from Enderly Coffee.

**Who should we interview next?**
 There are SO many cool people in Charlotte! **Alyssa Sharpe** with Digi-Bridge. **Quin Gwinn** with Quin Gwinn Studios. **Brian Mister** with Around the Crown. **Aaron Dodge** with the Hornets, Littlefield Co. and about a million other jobs. I think they’d all be great!
