    SUPERWONK didn't count -- even though, living in a state capital, I know several of them.

    Man, deserved points for at least half of those. If I'd encountered those in a novel, I wouldn't have blinked. If I'd written them, I would have told the spell-checker to take a break.

    Being a pyromaniac doesn't make you ARSONHEADED.

    Being DAFTHEADED isn't a thing either.

    There's PORTABLENESS, but "PORTABLENESSES" is apparently not a thing - even in a puzzle where "TRANSPORTABLENESSES" was found.

    It might not be in the dictionary, but I think you're onto something!

    DONUTNESS isn't a thing, it seems.

    I don't think I'd be that organized. My style is more a flurry of mistyped words and hoping something sticks
