Where I’ve Been (Spoiler: Not Hiding From You) If you’ve noticed I’ve gone a little quiet around here, here’s the confession: my life-away-from-Skool (I know, “oh, the horror” 😄) got a plot twist. I was “volunteered” (you know the kind, where nobody actually asks) to rescue an abandoned church website project. And friends, it may be the biggest mess I’ve encountered in my entire IT career. Too many fingers. Too many chefs. Possibly too many kitchens. But I’m a project manager at heart, so I’m not just patching holes. The plan is to leave this thing better than I found it: - A continuity plan, so the site survives changes in who’s holding the keys - A fully documented SOP covering every widget, plugin, form, e-commerce piece, calendar, email setup, and resource, with GDPR compliance baked in And because the church has no full-time staff, the whole thing will be run by volunteers. That means a volunteer manual written for real humans (not just techies) and probably a quarterly review committee to keep it all from drifting back into chaos. Whew! 😅 So yes, I’ve been a bit MIA, but I’m coming back to my personal projects and to Skool soon. I’ve missed you all. ❤️
Fun Visualization Prompt To TRY!
Since Christmas is around the corner I thought it's a good time to get a little momentum boost with another author visualization prompt. (ATTACHED IS MY IMAGE) USE THIS PROMPT Create a magical Christmas snow globe featuring me as an author, using my uploaded photo and book cover as references. Inside the globe, show a recognizable miniature version of me smiling and proudly holding my book with its front cover facing the viewer. Preserve my facial features, hairstyle, skin tone, and body proportions. Dress me in [a cozy pink sweater, jeans, and winter boots]. Place me in front of a charming miniature bookstore decorated for Christmas, with glowing windows, evergreen garlands, twinkling lights, and a Christmas tree. Feature additional copies of my book in the bookstore window. Add gently falling snow, sparkling details, and a soft layer of snow on the ground. Keep my face and book cover clearly visible. Use [blush pink, cream, gold, and evergreen] as the color palette. The globe should have realistic curved glass, delicate reflections, and an elegant decorative base. Show the entire snow globe against a softly blurred holiday background. Combine a whimsical miniature figurine style with polished, realistic product photography. On a beautiful plaque attached to the base, include an inspirational message. Below the message, add my author name: [AUTHOR NAME] Match the uploaded book cover as closely as possible, preserving its colors, artwork, and title. Make the overall image warm, hopeful, festive, and personal—a keepsake celebrating my author journey. Format: square image, high resolution.

@Deborah Cocks Slothingtons’ fan here! 🦥 The free Christmas coloring book is a terrific way to introduce folks to the family. Your style is unmistakable, and the brand is amazing. Full confession: I’m also taking notes from your free gift idea, so thank you for that! If you’re open to a few thoughts from a fellow fan: ❤️ Single-page PDFs in a ZIP: It might be handy to offer the pages as separate PDFs bundled into one ZIP file. That way, folks can print just the page they want to color. (Lots of free online tools can do the zipping if that’s helpful.) ❤️ Paper size: A quick note in the description about the intended print size (like US Letter or A4) would help people print with confidence. ❤️ Black-and-white linework: Pages that are pure black-and-white would be friendlier for anyone without a color printer, since colored areas (especially red) tend to print as solid black. Either way, I love what you’re doing, and I can’t wait to see more! 🎄
This is THE Payoff.. go, get it done!
It looks like my three seasonal coloring books are going to bring in "Ten's of Dollars" through the holiday seasons...and I am pleased with that. I certainly had no delusions of getting rich, LOL. HOWEVER, This morning, a college friend I have not seen in over 50 years sent me the picture you see below. For me, there is no bigger "payoff" than to see smiling faces associated with my projects. My heart is full.❤️ Now go out there. Get those books done. And bask in this kind of reward! (and if you make some money...that is OK, too😉)

Waytago, Mike!! I wish I had something like this when I was (much-much) younger. "Physics" gives me flashbacks of a 10-pound textbook that gave me headaches for two semesters of college, LOL 🫨

@Wanda Vasquez For us who are recovering: Two semesters, one textbook, ten pounds of pain, Headaches and sleepless nights, again and again. I used about a chapter’s worth at work, I confess, The rest just gave my backpack (and posture) distress. I’m recovering nicely, thanks for asking, I’m fine, And I’ve learned that E equals MC squared is a line That has nothing to do with my waistline’s expanse, Though the holidays give it a fighting chance.
