I have been on Twitter for a few months now, and this is about the best description that I have seen to date, of how Twitter works, and why people love it!
As a virtual assistant, I have found Twitter to be an invaluable networking tool for my business. I think you might like it too!
Watch this short video (just over 2 minutes).

I recently read a book by author & publishing consultant (and my client!) Stephanie Gunning: Audacious Creativity: 30 Ways to Liberate Your Soulful Creative Energy — and How It Can Transform Your Life.
The book is a compilation of thirty stories of creativity by a variety of contributors, and it is a remarkable addition to my bookshelf.
The authors tell their stories of how creativity has transformed their lives – how they came upon it, how they keep it alive in their daily lives, how they actively pursue it.
Stephanie inspires me every time we work on a project together, and I find myself opening this book on a regular basis to find and maintain inspiration for creativity in my life.
I highly recommend that you pick up a copy of this book at Amazon – and I wish you much creative inspiration!
So, I’m a perfectionist. You’ll learn that about me.
Well, maybe I’m really just a pessimist trapped in an optimist’s body or something like that.
Here’s the thing … I like to be sure that my work is completely ready before sending it out for the world to see, and this blog is no exception.
I started planning it last May just after returning from the conference at FoVA. My Virtual Assistant colleagues told me to ‘just get it out – don’t wait till it’s perfect’.
I knew what I wanted to do with it, but still didn’t get it together. I wasn’t ready; I was perfecting it (or so I thought). What I was really doing was … well, not doing it.
Over the course of the next few months the same advice kept coming up: ‘done is better than perfect’; ‘if you think of what you want to do, just start doing it’; ‘better to get going and then update after you’re started’.
I actually even started giving that advice to my clients and other colleagues. I just didn’t take my own advice. It’s great advice, after all!
And here I am at the end of 2008 and I decided … perfect will come. Just get it done.
So here it is. My blog.
Is done better than perfect? I’m beginning to think maybe it is!
Happy New Year!
This is my new blog, still in the planning stages. Please check back soon to see how it turns out!
