It’s one of the things I love best in life. Honest to God conversations about whatever. But particularly around things in which there’s a passionate shared interest.

Making Work Fit Life In A Social Media World
Back from cyber break. I should have hung an “out to lunch” post on the blog before closing my Mac down before Easter – that would have let you know not to expect to see me for a while. But in the run up to my self-imposed cut-off time, the words didn’t get written. Instead…
How A Year In The Country Has Revolutionized My Work Life
Can you believe that a year ago this week I was loading a van with all my stuff and heading from my much loved house in Wimbledon, to a cottage in the Buckinghamshire countryside? (Well, technically, I wasn’t loading the van, but you get the picture.) The whole purpose was to allow me to create…

A Different Kind of Blog Review: March 2010
Believe it or not, another month has passed since I posted my first blog review results. Which means that I recently skipped down to my local Costa again and spent a morning with a latte or two analysing things. Based on some of the feedback I got both on- and off-line last time around, I…
How am I doing?
So, last week I took myself off to do a review of my blog business. Any excuse for another trip to Costa, right?! As you might remember from my Upping the ante in 2010 post, I’ve set myself some pretty ambitious targets and I thought I’d share with you how things are going. Posts One…
Health warning: blogging can seriously change your career
It was just an experiment at first. I had no intention of becoming hooked. All I can tell you is that, after a while, something else took over. My first introduction to blogging was by accident.
