Weekly...err Monthly Roundup

Hey all!

I’ve been deep-diving into some interesting blogging tools I’ve recently signed up for. They’re pretty exciting and I’m finally getting the hang of the systems (full of data—which I love).

I really need to remember that actually writing is half the battle though, as that’s definitely slowed down lately. But I’m back at it now and hoping to increase the amount over the next few weeks.

I hope you’re having a great summer so far, especially with everything going on.

It’s pretty safe here in Taiwan, they haven’t had any cases for months now. But it will be interesting to see what happens when air travel slowly starts opening up again.

We shall see. But for now, rest your worries by reading through the last few weeks’ articles!

What I’m Up to Now

This is a neat concept I came across recently about a website created to make ‘now’ pages instead of ‘about’ or ‘contact us’ spots. The basic premise is to keep this simple page updated every few months to let people know what you’re doing ‘now’.

Here’s my Now page (apparently the first on Medium!)

Thanks for reading and have a great week…err Month!
