Good suggestion, Devon. I agree — if they know you're there, you can get a lot of mileage out of that membership.

Chamber of Commerce. It's worth the fee and pays for itself in the first assignment. Go to events, talks, breakfasts, etc. Let the community get to know you, so that when they need a writer, they think of you first.

That she is. She's been loving the snow because it means hubby is home more often. When he's home, she thinks she's a lap dog. Completely tackles the poor guy when he tries to relax. Adorable when you're not the one fending her off. 🙂

Thanks for providing such words of wisdom, Paula. Great article that changed the way I do things for the better.

Shoveling snow IS a time suck! Luckily, we're about to see ours go away for a while -- hopefully a long while, but you never know. :)

Thanks for sharing the link to that old chestnut, Lori. I need to follow my own advice this week.

Is shoveling snow the biggest time suck lately for all of us in the snowbelt?

Yesterday I got hardly any work done because my entire afternoon was spent shoveling my sidewalk and huge driveway; shoveling for an older neighbor who has a bad cold - to get to her house, I shoveled my immediate neighbor's sidewalk instead of just trudging through (they shoveled my sidewalk twice since they moved in last month so I owed them!); and helping yet more neighbors get their car unstuck. Good thing I fit the snowy doggie walk in during lunch time!

I love your pup. She's such a gem. :)

Anne, be very grateful! I love it, and even I'm a bit tired of it.

so grateful there's no snow where I am!

I like your take on networking... and on delving deeper.
