Professional Development for Bloggers As much as I love the online world, I think one the hardest things is the lack of support and professional development. Even for those of us with lovely blogging and business friends to call on for support, there is still a sense of isolation that is different to other industries. […]

Creation, Value and Output
I was not in attendance at Disrupted Festival, but a particular tweet caught my eye: Juliet Rogers #disruptedfestival says everyone does NOT have a book in them.

Tonsillectomy vs Tonsillitis
This blog post is adapted from a personal Facebook status update. Posted on Facebook, about 5 days after my tonsillectomy: I must look really good today because when I walked into the GP’s room she asked if I was going to be sick (just tired & in pain). The good news is I got […]
