๐Ÿ“šMy Goodness Time Flies …

๐Ÿ–‡๏ธ ๐Ÿ”ŽThe Readers Republic is upon us again!

Watch out for the deets in your email and calendars ….


๐Ÿ–‡๏ธ The second session of ๐Ÿ–‡๏ธ ๐Ÿ”ŽThe Readers Republic is coming up - delighted that @artkavanagh will be hosting. Sadly @ton will not be able to make it, so his session will need to run at a future event.

Otherwise, looks like we are all in for a good session on the 6th/7th March.

It surfaced the other day through my DayONE - and I decided to repost it in the category ๐Ÿ–‡๏ธ ‘Language Is Important’- ‘Tom’ and I are on the same page.

This from ๐Ÿ”— Paul Butler

๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿšง Funny how you come across stuff that is so cool - and then it disappears again … such as the Literature Map

I used it to create a ๐Ÿ”— series of 7 posts last year and then it got lost.

Maybe something to use in the ๐Ÿ–‡๏ธ ๐Ÿ”ŽThe Readers Republic?



๐Ÿ”— This we know .. but a short read, nicely encapsulated and an action we can all take at the end.

Pay for stuff!

This is a People First post that was originally on the People First domain. It has been moved here as part of my domain consolidation program. Itโ€™s a steady and slow WIP as I check each entry, so do please bear with me.
