Even beating us in Edmonton, atm! We had a frosty January this year; I checked and we got below -40°C (which is 'conveniently' also -40°F) last year, and that's without wind chill, even. That's like when the liquid thermometer has no skinny part at all.

I just finished narrating, recording, editing, encoding, and tagging the audiobook version of @ashallendesign.co.uk's book, The Web Dev's Guide to Freelancing!

Whew! That was a lot of work. Over 5.5 hours of finished audio for your educational listening enjoyment.

I'm stoked for its release!

I’m helping @ashallendesign.co.uk with his book about Freelancing as a web developer. We are going to release it on the World Wide Web in both print and as an audiobook!

I’ve heard there are stores that are trying to sell books online, but will this really catch on?

Apple Music has a 2024 Replay thingy, it’s kind of fun to see my top artists. My top album (Europa by Cosmic Cadet) was the one I made myself, so at least I made someone’s list! 😂

I did my first GenAm session with the Amy Walker at 21Accents on Thursday. Accent training is way harder work than I expected! But if you ever want to sound more American (or learn any other accent, she can speak with dozens of accents across multiple continents), Amy is amazing!

I'm on the homestretch editing @ashallendesign.bsky.social's book "The Web Dev's Guide to Freelancing". I'm stoked for its release! After an all-nighter going through "Client and Project Management", Ash's sage advice gives me the confidence to go out and take on big new projects. Great info here.
