This time of year seems to hit a lot of folks hard in the area of everyday health maintenance. There are so many bacteria and viral antagonists flying around that, to the microscopically-magnified eye, it would appear that we are on the front lines of a highly orchestrated attack from an enemy of which we … Continue reading You’ve Been Briefed
I have to admit that this is not my first "start at writing my first book" rodeo. I've been around the Writer's Block before but didn't officially settle in and take up residence at that point in time.

Quite frankly, they don't tell us a lot. When initially contemplating this fact, I was very upset about the idea that we, as consumers, rely so much on these industries that are legally allowed to withhold some information that directly affects our well-being. You may be wondering what industries I'm referring to. Well, the regulars.. … Continue reading What Industry Leaders Won’t Tell You
2019 is starting off with a bang, y'all! Degrees of Maternity (DOM) has a new logo. I'm so thrilled that I now have visual representation of my fruits of labor. As a matter of fact, I somewhat documented the preliminary stage of the logo creation process during Day 13: Procrastination Station. If you didn't have … Continue reading DOM Logo – A Tree Comparison
Here's my personal perspective on the whole "content creation" topic. It seems like a person who truly enjoys creating that quality "thing" almost ends up doing so in a most natural, effortless sort of way. Nothing forced, nothing manufactured. It's like a creative force that just flows out of the individual and the outcome resulting … Continue reading Self-fulfilling Prophecy of a Content Creator
