Site Update 6/24/2013

Man been awhile since I did these, huh?  I have to get better at it.  So where are we?

First of all, my next book project started.  I’m going to be returning to some past projects, let’s just say, and you’ll see some things in a new way.  And yes, it will result in a new book I think you’ll enjoy.

Still debating over another Focused Fandom book.  And I know, I know, everyone would like to see one on writing, but I’m reluctant since that can be a cluster of issues and focus problems.  Yes, I’m being overcautious!

I’ve just finished some resume coaching, and it appears my client is happy, so remember I do that as well!

I just dived into Bootstrap for the first time – I’m going to be using it to rewrite the front end of Seventh Sanctum.  That’s still a few months from completion, but so far it’s pretty powerful.

I’m also going to try and consolidate the Seventh Sanctum blog here – not sure I can pull it off, but let’s see how it goes . . .

As you’ve seen I’m trying to get back to posting recipes.  It’s quite enjoyable, and I know people would like more of my general cooking tips.  Let’s see how the time goes.

Finally, there’s going to be a big career announcement soon, so stay tuned!

That’s it for me!  What have you got?

And Muse Hack Is Live!

Remember Fan To Pro?  Well that was a site I and my friend Bonnie founded to speak on geeky careers and the fan/geek/otaku path to prodom.  But we found it limiting over time, so we “evolved” it with the expanded staff to  . . .

MUSEHACK

Update 6/1/2013

OK update time a bit early, so here goes!

Things got a bit behind with Anime North as you can see, so I’m getting back into it.  I got a little promotional work to do . . .

Epic Resume Go! does need marketing and promotion – on the plus side I’ve sold a my first copy so I’m quite pleased!  This of course is a blatant call for reviewers in case you didn’t guess.

There’s some fun stuff up with Fan To Pro coming soon – namely, it’s evolving and expanding.  Into what?  Well you’ll just have to see what happens in the next week or so.  I think you’ll like it!

As I have discussed repeatedly I hope to update Seventh Sanctum’s look, and I should begin getting to the code end of month.  I’ve got to split time with it and another project, but I hope to get it perfected soon – since I’m using Bootstrap and my friend Serdar knows it really well I’m pretty positive.  My goal is to make it easily multiplatform/multidevice.

Finally as you saw I’m putting my curry experiences online.  Yes, not quite the same as my work on careers, but hey, it’s Japanese Curry.
