Is This Too Obvious To Blog About? Never think that information is too simple. I was thinking about freelance income goals and other businessey “things” at the start of 2018. I signed up for lots of eCourses, because I’m finally at a stage where I can say yay or nay to the relevancy […]

Why I Don’t Always Share My Opinion Online
Originally published on Kiki and Tea August 6th, 2015 A few years ago when I was much newer to blogging and guest posting, I wrote a post that had a bit of a click bait headline. It wasn’t too “out there” but it was certainly designed to be a bit controversial. And it worked. […]
Harry & Hermione? It’s Ron & Hermione For Me

They create with respect. (Warning, very, very minor spoilers for the very last episode of Parks & Rec.) The Honour […]
Unbelievable Life
Last night, when doing literally nothing (ok, watching a Friends rerun on TV while playing a game on my phone, because that’s my idea of doing nothing) I had an idea. I had a flash back to a situation I was in once. Not situation as in negative, but situation as in unusual place I […]
Trying Out Dictation
Trying Out Dictation If you’ve read my newsletter recently, you’d know that I’m working dictation as a way to “write” faster. So far, the idea of voice recording myself is great. Only I need to pay to get it transcribed. Which I’m not unwilling to pay for, but I thought I would try some […]
Do We Make Things Harder Than They Really Are?
Do We Make Things Harder Than They Really Are? This is something I’ve been wondering for a while now. I know, I have a problem with getting frustrated about the pace of my life and then taking on too much, and then burning out. I totally will not mention right now the new blog […]
The X-Files MiniSeries
Spoilers for the new mini series episodes of The X-Files, uh obviously. That probably means spoilers for every other season too. And, if you read this, you’ll see why, but spoilers for both the Firefly and Stargate universes, too. While it’s possible The X-Files were on TV sometime while I was growing up, the […]
