March Workshops Launched… Sale Ends in Two Days!!
March Workshops Started… March workshops are now live and the April regular workshops are available to sign up. But more importantly, the half-price sale is almost over. Ends Thursday at 5 pm. And wouldn’t this be wonderful with the news today if this was the last one because the pandemic is getting close to being over? Got a hunch we got some bumps ahead, even with the news about the vaccines today. So I hope this is the last sale. Of course, I have been hoping that for eight months now. So just use the code AGAIN to get anything on Teachable at half price. If you have any questions…

So I will reconstruct the day in one entry for this chapter. Day Thirteen, Entry One (And only).…
