Weeknotes – S08E24 – Revitalised Project
Summary: I put several very old creative projects back on my list this week, finished my biggest paid editing project to date, and felt pleasingly motivated about all my current writing/editing.

Balancing Paid and Unpaid Work
At this moment in time, I have lots of paid editing work booked in for the next few months – which is really, really awesome! I’m used to a fortnightly schedule, whereby every other Friday, I’m in a position of all my client projects coming to an end, with nothing booked in for the following […]
