Maybe I'm not traveling

The ComputerWeekly article I was interviewed for was published. If you find yourself talking to journalists or being interviewed, do check out this guide. I've added another line to my Media page. Moments later I saw this new study which explains why I feel so awkward about self-promotion. Spoiler: because I'm a girl. Anyone who has read a little about the gender pay gap knows that men are more likely to apply for positions that they don't have the skills for, and this article details another nuance that makes it harder for women to get ahead.

I am, however, already ahead. I am well aware that my inner critic is absolutely bonkers mad. My objectively awesome life is objectively awesome. I'm working with affirmations today. FYI.

I was supposed to travel to Italy next week. I won't be going, due to the Corona Virus and my unwillingness to bother with quarantines, registrations of whereabouts and other associated travel snafus. I'm not so much worried about contracting the virus, We're all going to get it eventually.

Maybe I need help?

I loved this article about Charles Portis, who died last week, and I was surprised to learn that analysis would suggest that Edgar Allen Poe didn't commit suicide.

I ran short on time this week, so apologies for the delay, the brevity and the extremely light touch on sarcasm and eye-rollyness. I'll be back to my old self again soon.

Good luck with the weekend, there's a rogue day that's come for a visit and it is, unfortunately, still February.
