Love to see good examples of brand guidelines shared with the public. Nice work by @contentharmony & @KaneJamison.
Especially into the "Competitors" section in their voice & tone guide. As a freelancer, I wish every company supplied details like these.

@jowrotethis I wish I had a 'cool' answer to this, but I had a weird obsession with Disney's The Three Musketeers when I was a kid, and I loved him as Cardinal Richelieu. That's the performance that got me to know and love Tim Curry.
This week's new pregnancy experience is simultaneous heartburn and hunger pangs. It's a weird sensation.
22 down, 18-ish to go. I'll say this: pregnancy is not boring.
"Especially these last two years or so, burnout has felt like more of a staple of the human condition as opposed to a rare or periodic phenomenon."

@WinningSolo Build your network and start getting referrals by connecting and having conversations with other writers and marketers on LinkedIn, Twitter, and community groups.
Props to the various red carpet hosts doing their best, but asking random fans who they're rooting for tonight rather than showing actual Oscar nominees winning inside the theater is... not great TV.
Seriously, this is ridiculously helpful and I wish I'd been able to read it 10 years ago when I was churning out daily 1000-word blog posts for $30 a pop.
We all start somewhere, but you don't have to stay there.

TY for putting this together @elisedopson.
Being pregnant is so trippy. I'm just sitting here at my desk, typing away at my little blog post, and then I get a literal gut punch from the tiny person growing inside me.
And every time, it reminds me that my entire life is about to be irrevocably changed.
Trippy.
