I’ve recently been asked to edit a book. On the surface it sounds easy. What could it take, right? Just some proofreading – edit – suggest a few changes – correct – re-write – and proofread again – and that’s how I commit my time helping a friend with a project powered by his passion. … Read more

Celebrate Today – with each new day there are new miracles. As of right about now, I’ve been on vacation for 7 days. Go ahead. Congratulate me now because this is an awesome accomplishment!
