    UPDATED: Fixed the audio edit that had the outro in the middle of the interview.

    This week we discuss Ursula’s med changes, and how that is impacting her productivity – which it shouldn’t, since she’s allowing herself to use the adjustment period as “sick time.” After that, we have an awesome talk with Jazzlyn Stone, freelance comics marketer and writer!

    It is the week after the US Thanksgiving Holiday., and despite having JUST had a 4 day weekend, Kevin and Ursula are worn out from their respective tasks. The good news is Ursula finished a book today, and has sent it to her editor, but the bad news is she is too tired to appear this week. The better news is that we have a great talk with Special Guest Christina Vasilevski to make up for the lack of banter!

    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!
