New Perspectives
I spent a lot of 2021 lying on the floor and deliberately breathing in and out. Not because I had given up—because I needed to reset and feel grounded. It’s okay to reset. I tell my teenager this all the time. We call it “Ctrl+Alt+Delete.” It’s a way of starting over. It’s a freshly sharpened […]

I’ve been wearing glasses probably as long as I’ve called myself a writer. And, I’ve always recommended a second pair of eyes. Particularly in the early stages of content development.
