Rule of Absolutes
Yesterday was somewhat fruitful. I got the bones of the article set up and I worked through the intro and the “supporting” evidence for that intro. About then I had to stop for a client call. After that, I had to stop because my body said so. Anyone who knows me knows I follow one…

Double-Duty Marketing
Good enough day yesterday. For some reason, I couldn’t focus until sometime after lunch, but I did manage to get some client work done and some marketing completed.

More Bang-bang in Your Shoot-em-up
Yesterday was a lesson in wheel-spinning. I got one article completed, then set out to get my new website put together. The one I have I really don’t like, so I’m revamping everything. Websites should show personality, not what you think clients want to read. So they’re getting me this time around. The copy is…

Very weird day yesterday. Sitting here at nearly 2 pm, the house started to shake. At first I wondered why the stepson was running through the house. Then it continued, and I realized the blinds on the windows were moving. Not my first earthquake tremor, but certainly the strongest. Continued the marketing. If you’ve been…
