Rachel Laurence and I have been recording the new audiobook. Wait! Maybe I need to go back a stage. During the first UK lockdown, before we had even finished the audiobook for the first book Stuck (in time), I started writing a follow-up book. It's finished…ish, but not published yet. The reason it's not published is because we change it slightly as we go along - sometimes words are swapped around to make it read more smoothly or to make the meaning clearer.

It's had a working title ever since I wrote it, and I wasn't sure if it was the best one, so I emailed a few close friends with a few suggestions. I mocked-up the titles using some sections of prints produced by Elizabeth Newsham, who designed the first cover (this won't be the actual cover design).

This personal history is why I have such a deep interest in helping…
I really liked how the post gives an end-of-year reflection style summary, showing achievements, highlights, and moments that stand out from the season in a simple storytelling way. It reminded me of when our class shared yearly reflections and compared progress over time. When I was studying similar evaluation methods, I used MBA assignment writing service to understand how data and feedback are used to review performance. It helped me realise reflection improves future decisions.
