I’m in good company here! Thanks for including me in this group of top-notch posts! Here’s to us all getting the creative time we need to get our freelance work done!

David, you’re very welcome! Yep, all is well on my side, seem it’s all good on your side also :)
AgentSully, you’re welcome! I really like the “sitting in your car” part in your post, it’s so true.

Yep, all’s well with me too.
It’s festival time here in Edinburgh, so I’m making the most of all the great stand-up comedians who are in town.
August is a great time to visit if you ever get the chance.

Hey Jon,
A “learning break” … that’s a great idea. Our brains have a way of working on tough problems in the background while we’re consciously taking in new ideas or just chillin’ .

Thanks Jon! Yeah, I have some of my greatest creativity time sitting in my quiet car! :)

David, hey that’s nice, enjoy yourself. I’ll definitely stop by, I’d love to make a trip to Europe, opefully that’ll happen soon :)
Shane, totally, it’s always nice to take a break, everything seems to make more sense when you get back to work after.
Sully, same here, some people hate to wait for others, but I find this time really good for creativity, just bring a note pad, sit there, write, wait for the person. Got a lot of great ideas just “sitting in the car” :)
