In the end I postponed the workshop I was planning to run in Frome last Saturday, but I learnt a lot from the process of organising it. Rather than booking a room and advertising to the general public in the hope of filling places, I am now making a list of people who are interested and once I have plenty, I will work out a date that suits the majority and hold the workshop. That way everyone will know me, or at least know of me, some will know each other, and I think it will be a really friendly and productive day, a chance to share experiences of working from home and recharge our batteries. I’m sure there will also be some opportunities for people to help each other out after the event and maybe even to get some work.

If you are interested, have a look at Work from Home Events where there is a description of the workshop, and then contact me so I can add you to the list. And please pass the information on to any home workers you know who would be interested. Thanks!
