Sometimes running a small business means working longer, later hours than your friends! Today has been productive -- and restful! I'm managing a sore throat and some yuck, so I took a nice long afternoon break in the middle of this list!

Hey, #FreelanceFriends! I hope your week is off to a good start. This week on the Bluesky chat we will discuss "Life and business habits that impact success." Thanks to long-time chat member @sandyhubbard.bsky.social for the topic! Mark your calendar for 11am CST on Thursday, Oct 16!

Look who went on a hayrack ride this past weekend! 💜🐶

I have several client deadlines this week, so I'm working hard to pace myself so I don't get burnt out or get a migraine!

NOW, lunch break! If I break up my screentime into 2-4 hour chunks, I feel much better by the end of the day! 🥰

No book projects. I focus on content writing for brands. 😀

Thank you! I'll pop in over there and take a peek!

John Deere! This Iowa girl is very familiar with that farming brand! Looks like a fun adventure!

Thanks! I truly do love my writing career. I used to write fiction and poetry as a teenager, and might try it again in retirement when I have time for longer projects with slower paychecks. 😀

Thanks! It's been a good, busy week! I'm a former newspaper journalist, and now I focus on content marketing. So, all non-fiction pieces for me. I really enjoy writing about pet care, the environment, business/tech, health and lifestyle topics!

Happy Friday! I hope your day is rolling right along! I caught up on invoicing & other accounting tasks, edited a long-form business article and updated my calendar for next week's projects! This afternoon, I'll start an outline/first draft of a lawn care article.

That would be amazing! I'd love to hear more tips. My expenses really only go up when I'm buying a new computer/software, etc! Maybe share a few tips in the "Keep the Chat Going" channel when you have some free time. Thanks!

I see her being active on Instagram, so hopefully she will pop in here too! #FreelanceFriends

OK, I love this bit, "part of your ongoing education as a writer". I guess we are always learning, right?

Thank you! And will do! The little furball is happily chewing his toys in the office with me now. 😀

Thanks for the update! Maybe the Slack hangout will be a better place for her to connect. We will see! Thank you!

Hey, Andy! Send me a quick DM here with the email address that you would like me to send a Slack invite to.

Angela Tague @angelatague.bsky.social · 5d

Thanks for this tagging! Is @corrieoberdin.bsky.social interested?

Right! I mean, there is ground we can pay for, but I'm not up for that at this point. The Slack upgrade would work for audio/video chats, but it's spendy.

I'm hungry too! Quick lunch and then I'm off to a pendulum mastery class. 😍

The #FreelanceFriends chat will be back next week at 11 am CST here on Bluesky. Stay tuned for updates and happy freelancing, friends!

I use Quickbooks for my accounting. It keeps the invoices and $$$ flowing for sure. I like Google Calendar for keeping tasks organized. #FreelanceFriends

Angela Tague @angelatague.bsky.social · 5d

Thank you for attending #FreelanceFriends!
This chat is coordinated by many freelancers on Bluesky! 😀

And planning crew, please visit the Slack group. We are chatting about how to move forward with the chat. Possible new format! 👍

Right! They all have glitches and issues.
We just ride the waves, I suppose! #FreelanceFriends

Angela Tague @angelatague.bsky.social · 5d

It's not a bad life, it's a bad day. You never know what tomorrow will bring. KEEP TRYING. (Maybe pivot too!)
