It has been a pretty quiet dishevelled week all in all, but whoo now it is Monday and I have another to look forward to...
I would like to think I don't get frazzled much anymore, sure I may have a moment of regression and let things stress me out for a minute or day but once I become aware of it I am particularly well suited to shrugging it off.
The key for me is to always realise that nothing is as important as it seems, at least not in the moment. If society has taught me anything, we can become desensitized to everything not affecting us, and what I have taught myself is I should probably do the same for things seemingly affecting me.
Most things I might get stressed about really only affect others. As I told a customer this morning: "It is either 30 minutes or it is nothing."
Once they left in a tizzy I felt rather fizzy and got on with my shit.
I would like to think that choosing nothing is often the best option. Nothing begets nothing and you know? I like the sound of that.
So in some of my nothing time I found a pretty cool site for making Ebooks, https://reedsy.com/write-a-book . Reedsy does try to trick a person a bit, because it clearly says "FREE Epub and blah blah" creator.
What it does not mention is that they try to hide it in their menu.
If you sign up, do it as an Author or both, they will insist on showing you the marketplace and all this and that but really the only thing you care about is the "Books" menu item.
then you can start creating your book, and their interface is rather nice with the ability to copy paste images in, make chapters, parts etc etc all the fancy stuff.
If you are on Brave browser though, there may be some issues. For those using Valr in SA this is something you may have encountered. Maybe on other sites also.
It is an extremely long loading time or constant disconnect message. This happens because Brave specifically closes and has constant issues with service workers that run in the background.
The only real fix is to use Edge.
