The one about the first two morning hours made me chuckle. I getting ready for work and arriving at work in my first two hours. And I am certainly not awake during any of it.
Yeah, mornings aren’t great for everyone! I’m bad at nights. Trying to reclaim my mornings now from our new puppy!
Thanks, as ever, for these great links, Elizabeth. Among other things, it’s a reminder that I really ought to think about some solid promo for this year. Not something I particularly enjoy, but it does matter…
It can help, but it’s never fun, ha!
Between you and a couple publishing newsletters I receive, I always have a lot of informative articles to explore.
Thanks for stopping by!
