Life
Working, working out, free time curtailed somewhat by commitments. Generally feeling a bit wrung out and trying to recharge – June was a busy month, I guess.
Work
Things are ticking along! Trying to carve out more time for my own projects. In London (for work) and Leeds (to give a talk) this week. Technically Speaking September webinar is figured out, and it’s going to be exciting!
Media
Still watching the West Wing. Still reading Just Fucking Ship.
Product Links Amazon.
Places
In London for the day, had dinner at Dozo (miss that place!) and in Leeds I stayed at the Park Plaza.
Published
A new edition of Technically Speaking is out.
