Good Tuesday to you! Feels odd starting in the middle of the week, but here we are. Had a great week last week. How was the holiday weekend? It rained for part of ours. My son wasn’t able to come for a visit, so we decided to head to a meditation retreat at the last…

Of Mondays, Workloads, and False Alarms
Many thanks to our own Dr. Freelance, Jake Poinier, for reviewing my ebook, The Worthy Writer’s Guide to Building a Better Business. I appreciate it, Jake! Read Jake’s review (dare I say Jake’s Take?) on the Dr. Freelance blog. Wow, that was an overrated storm. Irene came into town, blew her worst, and managed to…
Goodnight Irene
If you’re seeing this post, I’m offline. I’m writing this Friday afternoon, when the forecasts are all predicting Irene is blowing into town for a whirlwind visit (so to speak). There’s a chance I’ll be offline due to power outages – we get them during small thunderstorms, so I don’t expect miracles here. So in…
Open Thread: Your Extremes
Off early this morning to have a play date with a writer friend, then back to brace for Irene. So let’s end the week with a fun exercise. What’s the most you’ve ever earned on one project? You can give percentages or XXXXs, if you’d rather. What’s the least you’ve earned? What was the experience…
