@manton Pretty sure I first heard it from you…not sure if you posted about this last year? Either way, great book. So much enjoyment from this book.
@hjalm thanks, it’s coming down but that initial time period was nuts
@patrickrhone huh, that’s (in a strange way) reassuring that it’s not just him, but honestly these North American wasps are vicious!
@numericcitizen I have yes. My favourite city in Canada - Toronto is a nice place to live, but Montreal is definitely the better city.
@moldyringwald It ruined my morning no doubt, but just now bought the kids the last ice cream of summer and while standing at the light, I saw an old lady doing the exact same thing as me and guess what, not a peep or rage from anyone around!
@numericcitizen Nice! I love that!
@numericcitizen these look amazing. Curious, are you using a particular platform to log these trails?
@cabtastic I spent 5 years in that mode on my newsletter Stet, I quickly realised was that I was doing it wrong and never reached the audience that I thought the newsletter deserved. After reading The Art and Business of Online Writing, I realised the errors of my way. Go where the audience is and use their platform to build your own and then keep building from there. Otherwise, you might end up like me, 5 years with a set of articles and site I am incredibly proud of, but with no traction. I found so much more traction on LinkedIn for my stuff.
@danielpunkass Totally the right person for the moment. Inbetween all the craziness its good to have a story like his.
@eurobubba Ha! Agreed totally!
@JohnPhilpin it’s hyper novel writing specific, which I do like. There are a couple of things I don’t like about it so might add them as requests/comments, but for something that is formatted to look like a book as you write, it’s pretty good :)
@patrickrhone oh man my kingdom for summers that are consistently sweltering. I can’t complain about the temp, it’s wonderful and like you want but the rain and cloud cover just sucks.
@patrickrhone No. No. No. Summer is only here for a few more weeks. Enjoy it fully and completely!
@mroutley Thanks, it will definitely change things in my professional life here in Canada
@manton really looking forward to this. This has been a little bit of a barrier and voices app isn’t great for this type of thing.
- Circus Books on the Danforth
- Great Escape Books on Kingston Road
- Doug Miller books on Bloor
@mroutley you know, 99% of the time no, but when it is needed, it’s really great to have. We have one that has an indicator of air quality and when the forest fires were raging is was bright red when we first turned it on. So it can’t hurt.
@mroutley I hear that. We ordered another air purifier. It’s certainly not going to go to waste - likely to be used next year as well.
@mroutley so so rough out there
@hjalm thanks for the encouragement. I know we’ll find something, but it is really getting too close :)
@maique agreed! Great game with great attitude
@ayjay game of the tournament. If you’re going to go out, go out like that.
@maique They became absolute heroes tonight. What a game of football. The ability and drive to keep pushing against the odds was amazing. 500k population!
@mike that makes two of us. Tahoe was a bad year. Even the best wines have bad years.
@manton super sad. Like you I really thought he was coming into his own writing recently.
