@JohnGwynne_@orbitbooks@julieacrisp The scream I made when I heard Orka name came up as I listened to the book. She is such a badass woman. I love her. Varg follows next.
@audible_com The King Beyond The Gate was an exciting listen. Love the uniqueness of each characters as they are introduced and weave throughout the story. I own 18 audible books from the author and I enjoy them all. I am currently in the Troy series.
Just got my Audible listening stats for 2022. I discovered @JohnGwynne_ , a master of fantasy writing just by chance one day after seeing the cover of The Hunger of the Gods. I consumed all the series, The Faithful and the Fallen (patiently waiting for book 3),
They now just got The Exile on Audible. I can't wait for them to get book 3 - Of War and Ruin. @audible_com suggested David Gemmell, another great fantasy writer, who unfortunately is no longer with us. I enjoy listening to his audio series which he has a quite lot of.
Of Blood and Bone, and the Bloodsworn Saga books. I watched @LibraryOfAViki1 who gave great reviews of @RCahillAuthor and I love dragons, so my next listen was The Bound and the Broken. It was exciting listening to the characters as they developed through a great plot.
Don’t do what you love. Play to your strengths and do what’s in demand, so employers are begging for you.
If you’re seeking happiness, remember that’s a mindset, not a job.
In my experience, your relationship with your boss has more impact on your happiness than your role.
My reminder for this week as I go through my online courses. @vishakhak29

I am pleased to share that I finally obtained my ServiceNow certification #ServiceNow. I have rescheduled this exam at least 7 times. I had lost focus and had a few setbacks. Thinking I didn't know enough and not wanting to fail made me overly anxious.
I guess also the fact that I haven't sat for an exam in 20 years, having 5 year work gap, paid for both the on demand and the exam contributed to my nervousness. I finally took it and I am so glad it's finally over. I want to eventually get into GRC so working towards that.
