I’ve got THE* answer to web traffic…
Write about the following topics… Ditch everything else you have or will ever write about and stick to this formula. Rigidly. It turns out, people search for them all the time. Because once, I wrote about them. Only once, and on a whim, because the thought crossed my mind. And now, they are still in my all time…

Have a Happy Social Media Birthday
Image Something occurred to me the other day. On my birthday. It started dawning on me from around 6am when I received my first Happy Birthday text. By midday this thought was crystal clear. It was because of the birthday wishes I was receiving. From everywhere. On everything. I had messages on twitter, facebook, on my blog {well, I…

Friday just kicked my ass

Reoccurring tasks annoy me
Well, they do, ok! I just can’t stand things that need to be done over and over again. I can’t stand it. I find it hard to muster the enthusiasm to complete the task. I procrastinate and let them stack up until the overwhelming nature of them overwhelms me. Mostly I put it down to that I…

Darn today, darn it to heck.
I’m having one of thoooooose days. One where I wouldn’t put it past me to kick a puppy, swear at my husband or hang up on an unsuspecting client. I was just cranky. Dark, stormy and grumpy. And even now. I sit glaring at the open blogger page thinking ‘What!! what do yoooou want!?’. Cranky…
