We’ve officially launched into blogging for 2025.
Things will continue the on the path I started last year. It’s a good plan. Only blogging fortnightly, or whenever.
My writing will still come first, as well as trying to promote myself and get my name out there, in the meanwhile, read about what I got up to over the last two months and I’ll see you next fortnight for my plan for the year.
