Keeping up the momentum.
I am finding the group very helpful with lots of information from some very experienced writers. As I am relatively new to writing I have to admit to finding the group very beneficial and am sure I will get lots out of it by continuing to attend.
At present I am considering the prospect of taking on a larger project. To be honest I find the concept quite daunting. Much of this is down to confidence and as discussed by others yesterday this is an issue most writers seem to battle with. Knowing that it is not just me that struggles with confidence does give me some hope that I can overcome it and the main way to do that is to just carry on writing. So before the end of the year I plan to start a big project and will make this the third of my large projects I planned to do this year.
For this week I will be making sure I get some projects finished though. I plan to do the second draft of the play I am writing and get the flash fiction piece I have done sent off.

Hi Kate, it was good to meet you too! I am sorry I was not at your first meeting. Life is a bit busy at the moment, what with the York Festival of Writing, the London Book Fair, and writing deadlines. I am glad you found us though and that you feel you are benefiting from the group.ReplyDelete
Confidence is a big thing when you are a writer. Will what you have written be interesting to others? Will anyone want to read it? Will an editor want to publish it? Do we have our fingers on the pulse, so to speak? All of these are questions we ask and the question of confidence is one of several reasons that I set up Writing Buddies. Writers get stuck in their garret and don't always have the opportunity to bounce ideas around, to see if they are viable.
I look forward to meeting you at the next Writing Buddies meeting,by which time, hopefully, your piece in Pick Me Up magazine will have been published.
Hi Penny,ReplyDelete
You have certainly been busy and great that you find time for such a great project with Writing Buddies.
I think a large percentage of not doing more has been down to my confidence. I am vowing to ignore that demon with the help of this blog and ventures like Writing Buddies.
The article is in this Thursday.
Look forward to seeing you again at the next meeting.

Northwest Kidney Centers Opens New Dialysis Clinic in Enumclaw
Feb 20, 2013, 08:37 EST
ENUMCLAW, Wash., Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- On March 4, 2013, Northwest Kidney Centers will open a new dialysis clinic in Enumclaw, the 15th center for the 51-year-old nonprofit health care provider.
Northwest Kidney Centers Enumclaw at 857 Roosevelt Ave. E. will include five dialysis stations to serve 30 patients. Hours are Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 5 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. and Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from 5 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The new center brings dialysis services closer to the residents of Enumclaw, who until now had to drive at least 10 miles to the nearest dialysis centers in Auburn, Puyallup, Tacoma or Gig Harbor.
Northwest Kidney Centers invested more than $2 million in the building at 857 Roosevelt Ave. E., which was vacated by the U.S. Forest Service.
Patients will visit the center three times a week for a three- to four-hour dialysis treatment. Dialysis replaces the function of healthy kidneys for those with chronic kidney failure – using a machine to filter wastes and extra fluid from the bloodstream. Without dialysis or a kidney transplant, the patients would not survive more than a week or two. With dialysis, medications and a healthy lifestyle, many can live well indefinitely.
Anyone interested in dialysis services should contact the admitting office at 206-292-3090.
Northwest Kidney Centers also offers a renal specialty pharmacy and free prescription delivery to patients.
It provides an array of classes for people who have just learned their kidneys are failing, to help them delay or avoid the need for dialysis.
Patients at the new Enumclaw clinic may choose to participate in studies at the Kidney Research Institute, collaboration between Northwest Kidney Centers and UW Medicine. Those who are interested may sign up in advance to be contacted for a study looking at conditions that affect them.
Northwest Kidney Centers keeps people in western Washington alive with dialysis therapy, educates the public about kidney health, and collaborates with UW Medicine in the Kidney Research Institute. Northwest Kidney Centers is one of very few community based, nonprofit dialysis providers in the country. Founded in 1962 in Seattle, it was the first out-of-hospital dialysis program in the world, and it is still a model in the field. Its mission remains critical. One in seven American adults has chronic kidney disease, up 30 percent in the last decade. For more information, visit www.nwkidney.org.

Chicago – Rush University Medical Center has broken ground on a sustainable, academic hospital of the future.

tic and therapeutic services utilizing the most advanced technology available. It will incorporate a concept called "the interventional platform," with three floors devoted to surgery, imaging and specialty procedures.
Upper floors will contain 304 acute and intensive care beds, 72 neonatal intensive care unit beds, and 10 labor and delivery suites. The ground floor will house the McCormick Foundation Center for Advanced EmergencyResponse.
The new facility will be the first full-service, "green" hospital in Chicago. Rush is seeking Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification from the U.S. GreenBuilding Council. Among the hundreds of energy-efficient and sustainable strategies the building will employ are multiple green rooms for slow release of rainwater into storm sewers, extensive use of recycled materials from structural concrete to interior finishes and furniture, and use of energy-efficient systems for lighting, heating and cooling.
The new hospital is the centerpiece of a $900-million, eight-year campus redevelopment plan called the Rush Transformation, which also includes a new orthopedic ambulatory building, parking garage and central power plant, renovations of selected older buildings, and demolition of obsolete buildings.
Perkins+Will is designing the new hospital and other structures that are part of the Rush Transformation. Powers/Jacobs is serving as construction manager.

Here's the Coolest Photo Yet of SpaceShipTwo in Flight• http://www.wired.com, By Jason Paur
Beyond making further evaluation of the powered airframe configuration, the pilots also tested the nitrous loading and venting system while SpaceShipTwo was still on the pylon where it attaches to WhiteKnightTwo, the four-engine aircraft that will carry the ship skyward. Nitrous oxide is used as the oxidizer for SpaceShipTwo's solid fuel rocket engine and this first test of the system is a major step on the way to igniting the rocket for powered flight. The pilots also engaged the "feather" system during the most recent flight, which effectively folds the aircraft allowing it to slow down during reentry from suborbital space.

Actress Claire Coffee and her musician husband Chris Thile are preparing to become first-time parents.
The Grimm star and the Punch Brothers frontman are set to welcome a son in May (15), and Coffee admits to People magazine that she was so excited to find out if she was expecting that she came close to dismissing the test that indicated she was pregnant.
She explains, "I'm not a patient person and I didn't realize you had to wait 10 minutes for the double lines to show up on those little pregnancy tests. So I kept trying and just seeing the one line and I thinking, 'Oh well, maybe next time.'
"Later, I was taking out the garbage and I saw these little pink double lines in the trash. It was very exciting and my husband was actually in town so we were together."
Coffee and Thile tied the knot in 2013.

During the 1890s, explorers in the area (including the noted bacteriologist Alexandre Yersin , protégé of the renowned French chemist Louis Pasteur), which was then part of the French territory of Cochinchina, asked the French governor-general Paul Doumer to create a resort center in the highlands. The governor agreed. The original intended site for the hill station was Dankia but Étienne Tardif, a member of the road-building expedition of 1898-99 proposed the current site instead. In 1907, the first hotel was built. Urban planning was carried out by Ernest Hébrard[1].
The French endowed the city with villas and boulevards, and its Swiss charms remain today. Hébrard included the requisite health complex, golf course, parks, schools and homes but no industry. The legacy of boarding schools where children from the whole of Indochina were taught by French priests, nuns and expatriates lasted until the end of French rule. There were seminaries of Jesuits (such as Pius X Pontifical College) and other orders. The elite Vietnamese National Military Academy graduated its first class of future leaders in 1950. There was also an aviator school at Cam Ly Airport.
During World War II, Đà Lạt was the capital of the Federation of Indochina, from 1939 to 1945.
In the mid-1950s, the Vietnamese Scout Association established their national training grounds at Đà Lạt.
The only major involvement Đà Lạt had during the 2nd Indochina war was during the 1968 Tet Offensive. Here fierce battles raged from Jan 31st to Feb 9th 1968 (about 10–11 days total). Most of the fighting took place between the South Vietnamese ARVN and the Viet Cong (VC) forces. Defeats and victories changed hands several times during the fighting in Đà Lạt. However, on Feb 9, 1968, the South Vietnamese ARVN were able to regain control of Đà Lạt. It is stated about 200 VC had lost their lives during this battle. While ARVN forces were known to have significantly fewer deaths, the injured list grew steadily throughout the engagement.

Yesterday a post went viral about an Australian couple who gave birth to preemie twins 11 weeks early. The twins were shown in various photos holding each others' hands which set the internet on fire. People were inspired and moved by the video of the newly minted Dad holding them against his chest and providing kangaroo care (a method of caring for premature babies in which the newborns are held skin-to-skin with a parent) while the twins held hands.
Here's the video.
This story hit home and for many reasons.
G&O were also born 11 weeks early. They were slightly bigger than the Aussie twins at 3 lbs. but they were still tiny. They were also tubed up for several weeks. We did kangaroo care everyday in the NICU, but not after the doctors and nurses felt it was safe to take them out of the incubators.
Through it all, I realized these tiny human beings are MUCH stronger than we give them credit for. The unmistakeable bond that twins have from conception (and from the video) is evident to anyone who's a parent of multiples.
As the Mom of the hand-holding Australian preemie twins said, "To all parents that face this, be comforted in knowing that today anything is possible."
I second that.

Hartford Care's CEO, Sean Gavin, is a Chartered Accountant by background and joined Whites Group (Hartford Care's parent company) as Finance Director in 2000.

The company has grown tremendously since Jo's appointment and, while the growth was very exciting, the company wanted to retain the family ethos and 'home from home' feeling, which is so much a part of the group. In order to maintain this ethos, the new role of Brand Director was created, which Jo took up in June 2013, handing the operational role to Mike Smith.
Jo continues to be present within all of our homes and focuses on our culture and values - ensuring that our care homes are warm and welcoming.

In 2012, Leah then managed one of our homes, Malden House in Sidmouth, for an interim period before going back to Skills for Care for a short while. Leah then rejoined Hartford Care as the Group HR and Training Manager in 2013. In addition to all her relevant work experience, Leah holds her Diploma Level 5 in Leadership & Management in Health and Social Care, and a CIPD Level 5 in Human Resource Management.

Age Differences in Predictions and Performance on a Cued Recall Task
Document Type
Article - Merrimack Access Only
Publication Title
Psychology and Aging

Publication Date
Abstract/ Summary
The notion that older adults fail to use optimal encoding strategies in memory tasks because of a deficit in memory monitoring was examined in a cued recall task. Participants were given different types of descriptors (initial letters, rhyme, category) for each word during encoding, and these descriptors were later given as cues at recall. Participants also predicted the likelihood of recalling each item. Age differences were found in recall performance, but there were no age differences in average predictions. However, the prediction ratings given by younger adults showed a greater difference between words recalled and words not recalled in the subsequent test than did the ratings of the older adults. Differences in recall associated with different types of processing were predicted poorly by all of the participants, but the relative recallability of specific words was well assessed by both age groups. We concluded that a memory monitoring deficit is not likely to be responsible for age differences in memory.

text: Process Definition: The Key to a Successful System Integration by Gordon Kessler July 20, 2016 Tags: web development There are so many new tools on the market, each making the claim that this piece of technology will solve your biggest business problems while helping you make a ton of money. And it's true that these tools can have a major impact on your organization – if they are properly implemented. As an application developer, I'm responsible for making disparate business systems work together. A successful implementation is dependent on a well-defined process. Challenges arise when an organization attempts to shoehorn their existing process into a new system. Something led your company to look for a new system – whether it was inefficiency, duplicate effort or total process breakdowns – but just buying the new tool isn't enough. If there is something broken in your process (or even if it could just use a slight adjustment), you must recognize the value that the system offers and use its implementation as an opportunity to make improvements in your business processes. Some companies would rather stick with what they know than get out of their comfort zone and embrace change, particularly when they perceive a risk in trying out something that's new and (to them) untested. It is important to remember that these tools are built on industry standards and best practices, and have been validated by adoption. For example, Salesforce is the largest Customer Relationship Management (CRM) solution in the world and has been adopted by thousands of companies who have validated the process behind it by using it every day. That level of trust and expertise is valuable. Process review should happen in the early stages of your implementation project. If it happens at the end of a project – or doesn't happen at all – it can be detrimental to the entire effort. When you've engaged an agency to help you with your systems integration, take advantage of their expertise rather than giving them marching orders. Take the time to explain your current processes and help the team uncover the potential in the new system. Strategic discussions involve outlining your current process, including: Key business goals Major steps and milestones in each process Manual or redundant work Key terminology Roles and responsibilities of those involved in the process An outside perspective helps you go beyond the initial pain points you may have already identified. When you walk through what the current process looks like, additional opportunities for improvement rise to the surface. For example, the development team can help you adjust your sales process to ensure that you're taking full advantage of your CRM features. By following the guidelines of the tool and making customizations only to enhance the process, you will get the best return on your technology investment. A change in process often means a change in roles and responsibilities for your team. This level of change often makes companies uncomfortable and makes user adoption a challenge when people see the new tool as a threat to their job security. In my next blog post, we'll discuss ways to improve user adoption of your integrated system. Comments Blog post currently doesn't have any comments.

Editor's Notes – March 29, 2017
Yin-Yang literally means shadow and light. This Chinese philosophical concept is how colleagues describe me and Dee. To a large extent, I agree. Dee and I are so different, but as business partners, we cannot exist without each other. We've always known that it is impossible to be perfect in every aspect of business; one is smarter than the other in many areas.
Dee is the "brain" and I am the "heart" of Care Indeed. Dee is the visionary; she clearly sees where Care Indeed will be and knows how to get our organization there. She inspires everyone with her passion, focus, discipline, and strength of will.
My role has been to promote a culture that keeps everyone valued and respected. Everyone is treated equally and given a fair chance to excel. I try to understand what my team needs and what motivates them because I believe in investing in people and nurturing relationships. I help turn Dee's vision into reality.
Dee and I have found a way for our unique strengths to work for each other, not against each other. We utilize our "yin and yang" for the greatest harmony. We are not yet where we'd like to be, and our commitment to be the best home care agency remains as strong as ever. We continue to challenge each other to work harder. Every single day.

Arnold police said the community typically experiences a stolen car once in a month or two. They've had eight vehicles ripped off in August alone.
"Maybe they're just in a hurry and they take their time and figure they're going to run in and out and these days it's easy to keep an eye on stuff … and steal stuff," said John Burkart, motorist.
Six of the stolen vehicle cases involved incidents of the keys being left in the ignition.
"They just don't think about what they're doing; let somebody steal their car," said one concerned resident.
A week ago, detectives said a man and woman drove around a convenience store parking lot. They apparently spotted a pickup truck with the keys inside. The woman got in and drove away in the stolen vehicle. The pickup was dumped behind a hotel a few miles north. Police found the truck because it had OnStar, which let authorities know where it was.
Police also have surveillance video of the suspects after they dumped the pickup truck. It shows them throwing the driver's cellphone in the trash.

White Hart Lane boss sets sights on England defender.
Win the Club Shirt Of Your Choice Simply by Speaking Your Mind!
Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is planning to make a summer bid for Manchester City star Micah Richards. The White Hart Lane manager is interested in signing the England international and believes he can persuade the 21 year old to move to North London after seeing his first team opportunities limited this season.
The Birmingham born defender has started just 19 Premier League matches this season and is seemingly not a essential part of Roberto Mancini's Eastland plans. After bursting on the scene when he first broke into the Manchester City starting line up under first Stuart Pearce and the most notably under Sven Goran Eriksson, form that made him an England regular.
Having seen Tottenham clinch a top four spot this season the club would still like to inject further defensive options into his impressive squad. Harry Redknapp is supposedly attracted to Micah Richards due to his ability to more than ably double up both as right back and centre back.
The £12m rated City man may well jump at the chance of a move to the north London club and Mancini may well consider a sale of a player who appears to be surplus to requirements at the club.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) defeats Hillary Clinton in Colorado, one of the most important swing states, and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is tied with her in the same poll even though the Washington establishment derides Paul and Cruz as the two candidates they believe will be disasters in a general election.
In a Quinnipiac poll released on Wednesday, Paul leads Clinton 47% to 44% while Cruz is tied with Clinton at 44%. Paul beats Clinton among independents in Colorado, 49%-38%, while Cruz beats Clinton with independents, 44%-39%, in hypothetical 2016 match-ups. New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie beats Clinton by eight points in the survey and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) defeats her by two.
In Colorado, a majority unfavorably views both political parties and 59% disapprove of Obama, 56% oppose Obamacare, and a plurality (45%) believe they will get worse health care under the law. Colorado voters are split on whom to blame for the government shutdown (44% blame Obama while 47% blame Congress).

Whereas the Freudian and Shakespearean cocktail of Forbidden Planet is a great example of sci-fi filmmaking – if not of great overall filmmaking – the other film in the package, The Invisible Boy, a black-and-white production directed by Herman Hoffman and based on a short story by Edmund Cooper, is a cute little movie that has moments as silly as Robot Monster, but that also offers some intriguing concepts that predate later sci-fi classics like 2001: A Space Odyssey, Colossus: The Forbin Project, and The Terminator series.
Like Robot Monster or Invaders from Mars, The Invisible Boy may all be the dream of the title character, for so much of it is propelled by a young boy's boredom – and fails to make any sense. The title is based upon the invisibility Robby accords to ten-year-old Timmy (Richard Eyer) to gain vengeance on a bully. The boy must also stop a super computer bent on world control. The computer in question has been built by Timmy's father (Philip Abbott), who works at a supposedly super-secret lab where his son can inexplicably roam around unhindered.
Apparently the film is set in the 1980s, for the supercomputer – the typical room-sized models of that era – has slyly encoded seven wrong answers over 29 years to somehow gain consciousness. But it would have to be conscious in order to plan such a thing, no? Then there are 1950s type scenes, in which Timmy's dad longwindedly tells him that a computer would have to be larger than Jupiter to be as good as a human brain, or when he looks at his wife while explaining that being a man – rather than a boy – has its 'compensations.'
No one notices or cares that Timmy has built Robby, supposedly from plans that were brought back in time by a mad scientist who had traveled to the future (and this is all treated with a shrug by the scientists) when the United Planets Cruiser C-57D returned home with Robby from Altair IV. The dim parents even believe Timmy's invisibility is just a phase devised to 'get attention.'
Despite its narrative flaws, The Invisible Boy is, generally speaking, a technically well-made film, especially in its use of rear projections and matte paintings. As for the absurd adult reactions to Timmy's and Robby's exploits, it borders on Dalian surrealism. Even so, it's clear that the filmmakers had no sense of the sublime nonsense the film conjures, for it's played straight – thus making it even funnier.
And as for the main feature? Well, Forbidden Planet deserves all its kudos. It's not a perfect film, but it's a great way to spend a couple of hours. It is also far better than Star Wars, which, though made twenty years later, seems much more outdated and juvenile. Only 2001: A Space Odyssey, Solaris, Alien and Aliens, and the first two Terminator films, have really equaled or surpassed this classic in depth and effects.
It's worth pointing out that despite Forbidden Planet's 'happy ending,' there is the possibility that the MOTI is still dormant inside Alta. After all, she is her father's daughter, and had an even more vivid nightmare than her father when the MOTI attacked the ship a second time. Also, the film wisely only 'shows' the MOTI once, and never shows the Krel, for the imagination can always conjure greater scares than the best special effects. Additionally, Forbidden Planet makes good use of narrative ellipses to condense the tale, something that far more realistic art films often fail to do.
Unlike other sci-fi films that are rather obvious Cold War allegories, Forbidden Planet is one of those rare productions that both define and transcend their era. Watch it and you'll agree – though you'll sleep a little less easily afterwards.

Easter is just around the corner and presents the perfect opportunity for a weekend of 'crafting'. Create Easter-themed decorations to spruce your abode, entertain over the holidays, or as an activity to amuse your kids, with our eggs-ellent ideas and inspirations below!
One. Prepare the Egg
To boil or not to boil? You can decorate hard boiled eggs, however if you'd prefer your craft project to not have an 'eggs-piry' date so to speak, we recommend draining their yolk and scrambling that part for breakfast!
Note: If decorating eggs with small children, hard boiled is probably a safer option. Less breakage, that sort of thing. For a rather useful guide to dying eggs with little kids, check out these tips on UK blog 'No Twiddle Twaddle'.
Two. Choose your Design Purpose.
Place your decorated Easter eggs in rustic terracotta pots and baskets, mossy bird nests, egg cartons or simple egg cups to make cute table centrepieces for a party.
Or string them together to create a sweet garland for hanging along a feature wall.
Suspending decorated eggs from a tree branch to create an 'Easter Tree' looks adorable too. So many options for a lazy Sunday afternoon session…

How to Dye Hard Boiled Eggs
What You Need
Hard-boiled eggs
Paper towel or newspaper
Bowl or cup deep enough to completely submerge an egg
Tongs, egg dipper, or slotted spoon
1/2 cup boiling water
1 teaspoon white vinegar
Liquid food coloring (about 20 drops per color)
- Start with cool hard-boiled eggs.
- Protect your surface by covering with a sheet of newspaper or paper towel.
- Fill container with the mixture of water, vinegar, and food coloring.
- Place egg on spoon and dunk, turning occasionally so both sides get color. Keep in liquid for up to 5 minutes, leave in longer for a darker hue.
- Carefully remove the egg and set aside to dry, voila!
How to Prepare 'Blown' Eggs
- Wash and dry a raw egg.
- Insert a long needle into the large end of the egg to make a small hole. Twist the needle as you push it into the eggshell as far as you can while still grasping it.
- Use the needle to make a slightly larger hole in the small end.
- Push the needle into the center of the egg and move it around to break the yolk.
- Hold the egg over a bowl with the small end down.
- Place your lips over the hole at the large end of the egg and blow firmly until all the egg comes out the hole at the small end.
- Rinse out the egg by running a thin stream of water into the larger hole.
- Blow out the water the same way that you blew out the egg.
- To dry the eggshell, prop it up in a dish drainer with the large end facing down.

The answer to this is confusing to many, even to docs out there… Even though they are high in cholesterol, and may raise your total cholesterol, shrimp and shellfish are actually heart healthy.
Shrimp are very low in fat but the fat they do contain is omega-3 fatty acids. Eating a diet high in shellfish will not increase your risk for heart disease. Shellfish has anti-inflammatory properties to decrease your risk of clogged arteries, heart attack or stroke. Dietary cholesterol is very different then the cholesterol in our bodies. Most studies suggest that it's not dietary cholesterol that raises LDL cholesterol or clog arteries. It's the saturated fat and hydrogenated oils in foods that you should be wary of. Shellfish has neither of these fats. Some studies suggest that shellfish raises cholesterol in some individuals but it raises the good cholesterol (HDL) more than the bad cholesterol (LDL), and is therefore protective to the heart any way you look at it! Shellfish is almost pure protein. Shrimp and scallops have only 80-100 calories for 4 ounces. That's about half of the calories of a chicken breast. So eat up!

It isn't a lack of talent, bad luck or the cruel world that holds the majority of writers, bloggers and authors back. The biggest enemy to a writer is their own fear: the fear of rejection, being judged, going broke and being out of work for lengthy periods of time. The vast majority of writers have had to deal with all of these problems, and what separates the great from the good in this profession are the writers who overcome these fears.
From a personal standpoint, it wasn't until I went to university to study Creative Writing and Journalism in 2009 – aged 28 – that I finally overcame my self-doubt and fear of rejection and started to put myself out there. As a result, my writing career has gone in all kinds of interesting directions, and I haven't gone mad or broke yet.
Here are 15 reasons why your writing fears should never hold you back:
1. The sheer fact that you're reading this shows that there's nothing to stop you. I'm nothing special. I'm just prepared to keep trucking on, improving, and learning from my mistakes. That puts me ahead of those afraid to do the same. Don't be one of those people!
2. There is money to be made – you just have to be prepared to find it. Go to local networking events, hand business cards out everywhere, and get your name out there any way you can. Be proactive, not reactive (as in reacting to going broke).
3. Don't be afraid to turn down work. Low paying writing gigs can be turned down. It's better to write a great piece for a website or publication that doesn't pay but has a huge readership than it is to get paid peanuts for something no one will see and won't look as good on your portfolio.
4. There are local, national and international businesses that would kill to have a writer to hand. Go out there and find them, and pitch your ass off.
5. Self-publishing is now legit – so you CAN get that 250,000 word science-fiction novel out there.
6. You are not alone. There are writers everywhere – online and offline – find them and discuss what's getting you down. Chances are, there are 10,000 writers with the same problem, and they might have a solution for you to overcome it.
7. Rejection happens to everyone, even at the highest level. What's the worst that can happen? Nobody is going to pull your pants down in front of a million people. It's just a no. Imagine all the great work that wouldn't have been created if everybody stopped trying after their first rejection. Bookshops, film studios and art galleries would be empty.
8. Mistakes can be fun, as long as you learn from them. I've made some epic mistakes. I've been screwed over for money, worked for content mills, been taken for a ride and lots more. But it's only happened once, and only early in my career. I look back at these mistakes now and laugh about them. They should never hold you back.
9. Writers are in demand. We are crazy enough to want to do this for a living, and let's face it: Most people aren't. That means that everybody who picks up a pen has got a shot, so take it.
10. There are examples of lucky bastards everywhere. Nobody likes a sulky McSulky Pants. Whilst you're moaning that nobody is reading your stuff, there's a guy with less talent than you but who is prepared to put his head on the block who is stealing a march on you, and the guys who get lucky are the ones who put themselves out there, regardless of whether they're a genius or not.
11. There is no set path to success. And that's a beautiful thing. You're free to write whatever you want to write, so do it and love every second of it.
12. You can write anything. Blogs, articles, business writing, white papers, research docs, social media posts, ghost-writing, press releases, presentations, speeches, online video scripts, film and TV scripts, editing, proofreading. The list goes on. Diversify!
13. Collaborators are all around you. Join forces with your restaurant owning buddy and offer to run his blog and social media campaigns. Write scripts for your filmmaking friends. Get in touch with local marketing companies and offer to freelance for them. The more you collaborate, the less time you have on your own to worry about your writing career.
14. There is always more time to find. It's amazing how much more time you have for writing if you plan your days, weeks and months and stop procrastinating.
15. Everybody gets judged. It's fine to be nervous about what people are going to say about you and your writing, but it's a lot worse to not write at all. What good is that going to do you? Make yourself feel better and read some one-star reviews for classic films, TV series and books. Once you know that you can't please everyone, the better you'll feel.
This is a golden age for writers who are prepared to graft and are not paralysed by their own fears. Understand that beating these fears is an essential part of achieving any form of success in writing.

Keep fighting and keep writing!

Top 5 Products Affected by Trump's New Tariffs That Will Disrupt Big Business
Posted on
This week President Donald Trump announced $200 billion worth of tariffs that will be effective in August, as part of an escalating trade war with China. The administration unveiled the products affected in a 200-page list that begins with "Edible offal of bovine animals, fresh or chilled" and ends with "Antiques of an age exceeding one hundred years."
While the overwhelming majority may seem like mundane, retail products that affect the common consumer more than big business, there are many major items to take note of. We're here to sift through this gargantuan, often incomprehensible list to give you the products most relevant to big business. (more…)
View from the Top: 2015 Perspective – Stakes Rising for Project Management
Posted on
Project Assistants CEO Gus Cicala will write quarterly contributions for the blog that provide his view of what is going on in the world of project management and what it might mean for your organization.
As we reach the midpoint of the decade it's helpful to take a big-picture look at the state of Project and Portfolio Management. From my chair, all of the economic, corporate and technological fronts have the arrow pointed up for Project and Portfolio Management. This, of course, is a reason for optimism, but it also places a heavier onus on doing Project and Portfolio Management right.

View from the Top: 2013 Trends and 2014 Outlooks
Posted on
Project Assistants CEO Gus Cicala will write semi-monthly contributions for the blog that provide his view of what is going on in the world of project management and what it might mean for your organization.
January is an excellent opportunity to reflect on the realities of the past year and plan to apply those lessons to the upcoming year. And 2014 looks to be a transitionary year. With the dizzying rate of change in this IT age, we can no longer track business culture in terms of generations or even decades, but half decades. As such, 2014 marks the last year of the first half of the 2010s, and in many ways, it will usher in the next era.
So let's take this opportunity to look at several of the biggest trends of 2013 and determine what it will mean for project management moving forward.
2013 Trend: The global economy has seen an uptick, returning us a bit closer to the mean. (more…)

Evolve or Die
Posted on
During attritive economic times, luck alone does not determine which organizations survive and which become extinct. There is a process of Survival of the Fittest that takes place, to where those who are most attuned to the economic climate, business culture and consumer trends live on to fight another day.
While this perspective highlights the importance of "fitness" to a given environment, the true crucial feature is adaptability itself. As an example, let's say that we lived in a business culture to where consumers only sought out the biggest and most recognizable names in a given industry. The organizations hauling in the largest profits and making the most notable expansions are able to hoard the market, whereas organizations earning slim margins on low-risk projects are simply flooding the market and are bound to die off.

Improving PPM: The Perfect New Year's Resolution
Posted on
The New Year is a natural crossroads that we reach every year. It's an opportunity to assess the realities of the past year and, from that, consider what you'd like to see happen in the upcoming year given the expectation of what is to come. With this perspective on New Years, we find that a commitment to Project Portfolio Management (PPM) is the perfect New Year's resolution, since the recent past has solidified its prevalence and the near future will augment its importance.

Gainey Ranch began as an Arabian horse ranch owned by Daniel C. Gainey. Gainey made a fortune selling school class rings. He used that wealth to pursue his interest in breeding horses, particularly of which he focuses on the Arabian breed.
Markland Properties purchased the all but 80 acres of the property in 1980 and began development of the master planned community in the mid-1980's. The family initially held on to 80 acres for a place to stable their Arabian horses for the Annual Arabian Horse Show, but the family trust would later develop it into commercial and further residential use.
Over the years, three Daniel Gainey's would own the ranch. The original Morrish-Style Gainey family house used to entertain politicians, movie stars, and other well to do folk that were drawn to the horse show. This home still stands and is used as the Daniel C. Gainey Estate Club.

Managing Offshore Outsourcing: Does your Offshore Operation Need a Health Check?
Lets reduce costs by going offshore with some development or service functions! The board and management agree to set up offshore activities in a place like India, China, Russia, Slovenia, or Bulgaria. Time passes...
Sep 06, 2007
..everyone is happy. Right? Well, maybe.
Many companies are finding that their goals are not being met in a consistent way. Issues creep into the picture. These issues are really symptoms of deeper problems. Issues that frequently arise are:
Do you have clearly established goals for your offshore initiative?
Is your offshore organization meeting original expectations?
Is there consistent expectation between head quarters and offshore organization at all levels?
Do you have a clear understanding of productivity of your offshore organization compared with its U.S. counterpart?
Do you have a clear understanding of total cost of offshoring not just salaries?
Do you have a clear understanding of the real contribution of your offshore organization?
Besides engineering processes, have you integrated management processes, culture and goals?
Is it meeting current and future needs of the company?
Do you have regular program reviews? How useful are they to manage your initiative?
Have you established clear guidelines for project selection?
Many companies are finding that their goals are not being met in a consistent way. Issues creep into the picture. These issues are really symptoms of deeper problems. Issues that frequently arise are:
- Product schedules begin to slip. Your staff starts complaining that low productivity in the offshore operation is eliminating the cost benefits that you justified the movement to offshore in the first place. The offshore operation requests substantial added resources in the budget cycle.
- Customer satisfaction relative to functions provided by the offshore group starts to decline. Customers feel the product is moving away from their needs or the call center doesnt seem to "understand our needs".
- Politics develop between the marketing, product management and/or development functions in the US and the offshore operation. There is finger pointing and the US based groups complain about the offshore group doing their own thing and the offshore operation complains about lack of solid product requirements and communication problems with the US groups. Teamwork, a strong point of the company, seems to break down on any subject dealing with the offshore operation.
- Frequent changes occur in vendor personnel at the offshore location. Members of your US team, who provided training and support to the initial offshore activities, have been reassigned to other duties and now the changes in the vendor personnel need support from your staff once again.
