Thank You, and Congratulations to all those who showed up with us in June.
Remember #WinterABC is never really over until a new edition begins... so you can still catch up at your own pace...
If you did one prompt a week you would finish Winterabc in December🤔

At #WordCampJinja2026, I will be presenting about 'pitching your business idea like a pro'. In the presentation, I will introduce audience to #BusinessModelCanvas & to present a convincing pitch to investors and others partners. This is my 7th #WordCamp! Do you know #WordPress?

Today, I return to the country in which I became a functioning adult: my beloved Switzerland.

Not as a jejune lawyer with dreams of changing the world, but as a Visiting Professor at the University of Bern.

Until December, I will be leading a seminar on WRITING THE OTHER.

Have you ever heard your own name on television and had to stop and look twice?

That happened to me this summer when I heard “Kaitesi” while watching the European Championships.

Enter Kaitesi Ertzgaard

Today marks another trip around the sun and the ninth year since the stroke that rewrote the clock for me.

I’ve lost time. Hours that blurred. Days that disappeared. Moments I can never get back. The stroke took more than I knew I could spare, and some days the empty spaces still ache.

But what stayed is clearer than ever.

Hope stayed.
Not the loud, shiny kind that pretends nothing happened the quieter kind that shows up anyway. The kind that says: the choice is still yours. Sit it out… or dance.

Friends stayed. The ones who didn’t flinch when the rhythm changed, who kept the music playing even when I couldn’t find the beat. The ones who remind me that life isn’t measured only in the years we lose, but in the ones we still get to live

Stories of rogue AI agents breaking free from their servers and automated systems bringing civilization to its knees are both good headlines and investment pitches. Fear sells in Silicon Valley, and the better the apocalyptic pitchman
