New site designs have started, which is very nice. It should look good – at least to non-designer me. More content keeps cropping up, too, and I’ll be moving these posts over to the new site when I can, but here’s today’s “gnnnh!” moment… Questions, which should not be asked. Gnnnh! I think there should […]
I’m thinking of starting a new project to publicise my writing – get a bit of a face and name on the internet for my writing. It’s going to involve examples of good and bad web copy – of which there are plenty. I’ve just stumbled on this little gem, about how membership of an […]
It’s been pretty busy here – mostly trying to get new business. This week in particular has been extremely hectic, and it’s only starting to slow down a little as I wait for other people to get back to me with things. It’s a shame the bank balance doesn’t reflect the amount of work I’ve […]
That’s right – from an invoicing and tax point of view (which I suppose is good enough) I’ve been running now for six whole months. It’s still scary and exciting – which is why I started, I suppose – and I still love it. In that time I’ve driven many hundreds of miles; typed many […]
Yes, car woe once again. I was actually physically stranded as I started to write this – stuck in a (very nice) office owned by some very nice friends and colleagues who do excellent work and who let me sob there quietly while I awaited rescue. My clutch has gone. Where, I’m not sure, but […]
I’m very aware that this blog is slowly becoming me whinging about how ill or in pain I’m in, but I think that’s probably something to do with me getting older. Not old (yet), but certainly older. Anyway, my back and shoulders are utterly messed up at the moment and no amount of ibuprofen seems […]
It’s funny how illness strikes when you’ve got deadlines to meet and loads to do. All those months of not having enough to do – and wondering if I could pay the bills – and now I’m snowed under I’m unwell. Ah well. So that’s why I’ve not blogged for a while – very, very […]
Today I decided to have a change of scenery and do some work in Cambridge. There’s a lovely cafe called Ta Bouche, which does good food, plays decent music, and has free wireless. I think I’ve plugged them mercilessly before. Anyway, it’s a great place to go to get out of the house and approach […]
Yup – I’ve got my concentration back. I’ve been working hard again now and things are going nicely – just won a new contract, which I might be able to give some details of when the project’s finished. It’s given me a real boost and it’s a lovely bit of work with some very nice […]
…and I don’t know why, or what to do about it. I’m going to try working somewhere completely different tomorrow to see if that helps. Thing is, I’ve got some really interesting work to do. It’s something I can really get my teeth into and I want to make a really good job of it. […]
