It seems like just last week I was saying goodbye February. Do you often find when you’re busy time seems to go at supersonic speed? Tomorrow is officially the last day of the March classes and then I have a whole week free of teaching. During that time, I hope to get caught up with some of…

The end of another work week. I have to admit I’ll be happy for a break next week. This month’s boot camp finished yesterday and just two more weeks of the self pubbing class and that’s it for the year. It’s hard to believe that this time last year I was in the planning stages…

Ever had one of those weeks where you feel like you’ve done a lot, but you’ve got nothing to show for it? I think it’s because I’ve been planning future projects and not working on current ones. Well actually, one present thing I did checked off my to do list was publish another class in my freelance writing…

Welcome to fall…or spring depending on where you live. Thank you to Beth and Vivi for this week’s great guest posts. Both of them have promised to guest blog again.
