    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    Just started reading Trevor Noah's Born A Crime - It is well written, and casts a critical eye on race in South Africa today. Interesting and thought-provoking.

    Great apps, tools, software... What do you use?

    NOTABLE! HOT! 
    The greatest app (IMO, of course) on my phone happens to be something that's not work-related at all. It's Strava: the first thing I do after reaching home from my run is sync my Garmin watch to my Strava mobile app. Then, after my post-run routine and breakfast, I log in to the site and...

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    In 2019 I resolved to read two non-fiction titles a year, and that has been good. I've been able to keep it up as well, and since I didn't burden myself with any unrealistic target, I'm also able to read fiction. So it's been a good mix of fiction and non-fiction since 2020 for me. Currently...

    Random Chat, Thoughts, Posts, and/or Rants Thread

    HOT! CHAT 
    My rant: I used to like working from home when things were normal (yes, back then) because I could go out for a walk, get coffee, or just roam about aimlessly for a while. Things are much better now than they were last month, but I've not been sleeping well at all these days. So most of my free...

    Is SEO even worth it?

    MARKETING 
    There have been plenty of great replies here, but I'd like to reply too because I think OP and I have a similar background. I'm also a tutor; I also edit research papers. For small businesses, especially if they're local, I'd suggest particularized local SEO strategies. That's a bit of jargon...

    I wont be able to pay rent this month, what to do?

    HOT! 
    I'm terribly sorry to hear about the situation. I was in a similar jam, but I took up almost every writing job I could find. I hope things get better very soon :) Also, when you say you had to pay one month's rent upfront, wouldn't that hold you in good stead? Do you have to pay rent in...

    What websites do you follow?

    HOT! 
    I follow Teach Thought regularly. It's a good education website; critical content, well-written. I also follow soccer updates on ESPN fairly regularly.

    You copywriters are being replaced by AI..

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I don't think AI can do a comprehensive job; sure, it can do a decent or even a good job, but the cognitive processes, let alone the un-measurable skills, of a top-notch copywriter cannot be mimicked. It also depends on the type of copy. To draw a parallel, Grammarly and other tools help writers...

    At what age did you start to get your shit together?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Around 22. To me, getting things in order meant developing a more normal, regular sleep cycle. For about 4 years (until I turned 22), I slept at random. I'd sleep for a couple of hours, wake up, do things (assignments, socializing, grab drinks, etc) for about 6 hours or so--that's all I could...
