I've just wrapped up Week 2 of my September Submission Challenge, where I challenge myself to submit 30 times in 30 days.

I took October off in order to recover from the stress of my September submission challenge and travels. I also caught a cold in mid-October, and I decided it was best to rest and relax so that I don't burn myself out before the end of the year. I'm happy to report that I succeeded... Continue Reading →
