And What Am I Now?

02/17/2026 by Debbi

Hello? Yeah, today I don’t have a review as such, although I am going to mention a book. I’m just going to read from the journal entry I made yesterday, which is Sunday, which is my “offline” day, so to speak, in the sense that really, I don’t do any business online. I do nothing more than, say, watch a movie or a TV show, or in one case answer a trivia quiz. I do that for Paul, just to say hello. Just to let him know I’m still out there. Anyway, Paul is a blogger, great guy, really nice guy. Even met him. He’s in England. I’m not at the moment. Anyway, okay, here I am.

My Mid-June Update

FYI: This was obviously recorded earlier than the date published here. Thank you!

Hey. Yes. Hi. I’m going to try to sit up straight here. Yeah. I am in the midst of reevaluating how I’m doing this month. It’s June, the middle of June. Pretty much. We’re getting to the middle of June. It’s the 10th, right? What day is it? Is this a weekday? I dunno.

Work Smarter, Not Harder

Hi. Yeah, just the other day, just yesterday actually, I did a book signing event with several other authors at a local bookstore, The Last Word Bookstore at Savage Mill. Anyway, not only did I not market it, I failed to tell anybody on any of my lists. I didn’t put anything on social media. The only thing I did was talk to some people that I happened to be with that weekend and at some other times, and that was all I did. And I thought, my goodness, what has happened to my marketing skills that I’m not doing anything.

Readings from ‘Tribes’

03/19/2024 by Debbi

Hi. It’s Sunday morning. I have not been reading the Post because I no longer get the Post. Yeah, we don’t have our usual Sunday paper this morning, so instead I’m reading from Tribes. Tribes is really good. Here are a few really good parts of it.

The timing of leadership.

It’s rare that it’s obvious when to lead. Sure, there are times when you know you need to stand up, take a position, spread an idea, clear out an obstacle, and be brave. But more often than not, great leadership happens when the tribe at least expects it. The non-obvious moments are the ones that count. Like now perhaps.

Then an interesting one about Wikipedia in here. I thought that was interesting. A possibility of risk.
