I'm about 15 rows from finishing another design that I need to block before I send final edits to the tech editor.

Keeping my systems in top working order. While we were in Banff National Park last weekend (E had a retreat), my mother broke her hip and that seems to be cascading into quite the…[Read more]

I just came back from Paris yesterday. It is too hot and I gave myself a day off. Seems like I'll end up spending it catching up on social media. Might turn out it is almost my last check-in here…

Enjoy your vacation!

Tanja Osswald replied to the topic 7 habits for artists in the forum Ten Forward 8 years ago

I totally agree with Carmen, @rachel-brooks. So far, my best-selling patterns were those I made because I wanted to make them, not because anyone else or “the market” asked me for them. If you follow your enthusiasm, you'll do your best work.

Nicole van Gremberghe started the topic Taking a break in the forum Ten Forward 8 years ago

Hi everybody, just wanted to let you know that I will be away these next few weeks. Taking a vacation with my lovelies. I hope I have everything ready in the business. Having a banner on my website and I have been scheduling some important posts on IG. Now packing our bags and car are on the agenda for this afternoon and off we go tomorrow…[Read more]

Karen Robinson started the topic Abandoned Cart Recovery in the forum Engineering 8 years ago

I just wanted to share some recent experiences in case they might help someone else out.

My online shop is on Shopify, and one of the features is the ability to see “abandoned carts” (people who have added something to their cart and got almost all the way through the buying process but just didn't click the final buy button). I can send an email…[Read more]

Carmen N replied to the topic 7 habits for artists in the forum Ten Forward 8 years ago

Sometimes buckling down and/or setting deadlines works for me, @rachel-brooks. Sometimes.

Does it really matter if a design is interesting/appealing to others? If you like it, more than likely there are others that would agree. Your people 🙂

Thanks yall! We're in Redmond, Oregon, now staying with friends. And the Hubs is looking for a job. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers! xx

Dana Gervais replied to the topic Mail Chimp Questions in the forum Engineering 8 years ago

I'm planning to migrate from madmimi to mailerlite in the next month or so. I don't find mailchimp very intuitive for me. I look forward to reading your comparison of mailerlite to mailchimp.

Jess Cook replied to the topic 7 habits for artists in the forum Ten Forward 8 years ago

This is really interesting, thanks for bringing it up @tanja-osswald and thank you for listing out the points, @varian-brandon, because if I'm honest with myself there's no way I was ever gonna look up the video but I enjoyed reading the points!!

@rachel-brooks it may be hard to find that kind of scenario in person, but maybe online you could…[Read more]

Jess Cook replied to the topic Mail Chimp Questions in the forum Engineering 8 years ago

If anyone else has Mailchimp questions, I'd love to hear them! All through July I'm going to be comparing MailChimp vs. MailerLite for my own use and for my newsletter subscribers, so along the way I would love to solve common problems and answer questions you may have about either platform!

Jess Cook replied to the topic There's A Doctor in the House! in the forum Ten Forward 8 years ago

Hooray, C.C. and husband!!!!! I hope your move overseas went smoothly and that you're settling in well in your new home!

Jess Cook replied to the topic My First TNNA in the forum Goals, Accountability, and Celebrations! 8 years ago

I'm so happy that it worked out so well for you, @ann-tudor!!!

I keep waffling about joining as part of the Business & Creative Services section, and your experience continues the nudging I need in that direction. I just wish it were still going to be in Columbus next year, instead of Cleveland!

Jess Cook replied to the topic I did this! in the forum Goals, Accountability, and Celebrations! 8 years ago

Wow, @penny-shima-glanz, that's awesome!!! I think you'll be a great voice on that committee!!

@nicole-van-gremberghe that's a really big deal, good job! It's one of those things that can really add up if we don't stay on top of it. 🙂

This is amazing, thank you so much for sharing it with us!!!!!

Karen Robinson replied to the topic Instagram hack – link in profile! in the forum Engineering 8 years ago

I've also been using Link in Profile and paid for the year after my trial. I really love it and feel that it's helped a lot in leading people to various links.

What I like most about it is that people can go to my link and find the picture that first led them there and click on the link. With something like linktree, it's just a list of links as…[Read more]
