I love it when a deadline is met
Posted on | August 17, 2009 | No Comments
Every quarter, I write articles for the magazine Rapport, published by ANLP. For this I have to interview people from the NLP community and write them up in around 1500 words.
This quarter I have interviewed Dr Wyatt Woodsmall, NLP Master Modeller and Elder Statesman, and Dr Paul Tosey of the University of Surrey.
The articles are written now and the baton has passed to the production team who will turn them into ‘proper’ magazine pages.
I’ll post the articles here when complete and published. Meantime, I can take a quick breather before moving on to the next task.

New content being added to the site
Posted on | August 11, 2009 | No Comments
If you are visiting this site in August 2009, you have probably reached here through an old link in a post on a network or because you have my card. After years of neglect (apart from an occasional blog post), the site is being upgraded and content added with the intention of launching and publicising in September.
Please bookmark the site and this blog. As new content is added, it will be reflected in a post here. The intention is to make this a site that gives you information of value and showcases my writing services and skills.
Time will tell how well I live up to that intention.
A New Site is just the Start!

After what seems like an age (and probably is), I’ve finally got around to upgrading the Bizwords site. Now all I have to do is to populate it with compelling content.
Now that is what I do for my clients so you’d imagine it would be easy for me to just do it. Would that it were true.
First I have to allocate my time to a task that isn’t directly revenue earning – and yes I know that it should payback in the longer (even the shorter) term.
Second, and more crucially, I have to overcome the inhibitions that have been drummed into me throughout my upbringing about ‘showing off’ or ‘blowing your own trumpet’. We seem to have an aversion for talking ourselves up, hence the number of phrases that signify that. ‘getting above your station’ is yet another.
However, my aversion to hyperbole in others will also have a part to play in what I’m intending to be an honest site that explains what I do and how I do it and uses examples and testimonials to back that up.
The full site may be a while in revealing itself, I have to live, after all – and writing is how I achieve that trick.
So please do come back and read me again soon.
