- Um, what are you doing in the middle of the road?
Goals are good. I had a goal for this blog at the beginning of the year.
The problem was that I got so busy I didn’t have time to achieve life’s more basic goals, like showering or taking my kids to school.
Since my last blog post I:
- Attended an internet marketing conference in San Diego and made some friends
- Did a small business management course and made some friends
- Attended some local business events and made some friends
In the middle of all that, I still managed to:
- Maintain a full-time work-from-home technical writing position with a large technology company
- Increase my number of Twitter followers from 1481 to 1483
- Discover a cafe in walking distance from home staffed by members of the Munster family
I began this blog wanting to talk about two writing courses that I found helpful, so here’s a very brief update:
- I still think Holy Lisle’s course is ‘top-shelf’ for quality and value for money, but you gotta work at it to get the most out of it. This project for me is on the back-burner for the moment.
- The other course was at affiliateu.net, which has been down for weeks, and without any notice to its members. I just checked again and there’s now a WordPress theme up, so maybe my life-time access for $97 might come good. They haven’t responded to my queries, so I’m keeping my expectations low, like I have about the Australian soccer team at the next World Cup.
I’ve also been working on some new e-books which I’ll mention in due time.
So you could say I have more work on my plate than an outsourced Indian programmer, but I’m still here and you’ll see some changes soon.
- Would you like sugar with that?
