  • by Gwynne Monahan

So this has been sitting in my Evernote list for…only a week. Huh. Thought it was longer. Holidays are one of those things that, as a #freelancer, I paid little attention outside the context of who needed what by when.…

  • Posted on February 21, 2012
  • by Gwynne Monahan

For the second time, I think, I forgot my laptop charger at the office. And I’m feeling lazy so I’m finger typing on the touchscreen instead of using the better wireless keyboard. So this post is an experiment. The interface…

#vancouver Business Attire, or Lack there Of

  • Posted on February 21, 2012February 21, 2012
  • by Gwynne Monahan

The Evolution of a Phrase

  • Posted on February 21, 2012
  • by Gwynne Monahan

I can’t decide if Evernote is becoming a crutch, or just an aspect of my writing method. Anyway, here is a note from yesterday: So there is sun in Vancouver, on occasion. Like today. Started out rainy though, which is…

  • Posted on February 14, 2012February 13, 2012
  • by Gwynne Monahan

I noticed this on the bus ride home tonight, half listening to a trio practicing their music at the back of the bus. Up is South. Down is North. So when you walk up a street, in Vancouver, you are…
