    FYI – the noise in the interview is Sergi rubbing on my microphone. He wanted to be held for a large portion of the interview and LOVED the mic.

We also have our individual productivity updates, and some discussion of the new book launch. Finally, we have an incredible catch-up with Michelle Wexelblat and how things have changed for her since we talked last!

    Episode 285 – Boring Week, Anne “Tyrrlin” Williams
    byKevin Sonney

    Apologies for the mic issues in the opening discussion, I have no idea what happened there. This week in our productivity updates we have a normal, not very exciting, and typical week. This is a good thing! We also talk about Ursula’s soon-to-be-updated eyeglasses, Kevin’s hurry-up-and-wait time fillers, an update on our planned trip to HI, and a chicken update. After that, we have a catch-up interview with Anne “Tyrrlin” Williams!
