Still slogging away. I am trying to create some postcards that I can leave around in cafes, small businesses, friends, send to agencies etc. But I get all enthused about what photograph to put on it that says what sort of photographer I am. I want to be able to use my nature photography as part of my commercial photography. Perhaps I can use the '100% pure - clean, [...]
Just before the school holidays I went to a 1 day Networking workshop which really changed the way I look at networking. So now I can enjoy talking to people that I have something in common and am helping my business profile at the same time. wow.

Not a good week - I have been sick and not capable of doing much. Life keeps plodding along anyway and the work is piling up. I am feeling sorry for myself today as I just got my marks back from my 2nd assignment from my Massey Uni writing course and didnt do as well as I thought. So there, I am hopeless and I have to do something about it. So have been trying to get some useful criticism from my tutor, but he is being very vague so will have to figure out a plan B (find a course or book on how to analyse better?). Also went to a freelance writing conference yesturday in Auckland and didnt really get anything useful out of it. Next I have to get some decent photos online. I have 2 stock libraries wanting my photos to sell - but I havent got off my butt to get them to these people. It will take lots of work to do this, but I have to do it, otherwise my photos are just sitting on my PC and no one can see them. I am trying to juggle so many things, its hard to focus on each thing properly. If you do one thing well, everything else gets neglected. If you try tackling everything, you run out of time as new things keep piling up then nothing is done well. And I am trying to do everything properly. Oh well, I just have to have more patience and trust myself that it will all get done. I have always had problems with time management.
