Hello! And thank you for dropping by. I’m Nicola Fisher and I’m with Bamber, my husband’s Guide Dog, in the photo above. On one of our local walks down the lane. As soon as I put on my pink boots, Bamber’s ready to go. …

How to Make Your Own reMarkable 2

For the first time — ever — I talked notetaking with someone face to face, not online. At a recent event two women were using the reMarkable 2 for their meeting notes. I was intrigued. I’d been interested in the reMarkable for a while. Not long ago, Chris heard about…

The One Thing I Wish My 20 Year Old Self Had Known

That question: what would be your best advice for your 20 year old self? My answer is very short. But, first, some background. London I lived in London in my twenties. Always South of the River. Putney. Richmond. Southfields. A stone’s throw from Wimbledon All England Lawn Tennis Club where, once…

Injecting New Life Into My Creative Impulses

The screenwriter Brian Koppelman similarly talks about why, after many years of being afraid to, he finally ran down his dream of being a writer. “What I finally realized,” he said, “was that if I allowed these creative impulses to die, it would be like a real death, and like…

Sometimes When Everything Changes, It Really Just Stays The Same!

Is your life like this … you seem to go from project to project, always coming up with new ideas, and feeling as if you’re constantly starting over? For almost two decades I’ve dabbled in a number of areas. All interlinked — but I could only see this in hindsight…

Why We Should Make Time For Ourselves

Every now and again I have to regroup. I back myself into a corner. I say Yes to too many things, over plan, over schedule. I’ve done it before. I should know the signs by now. I missed a day at #66write yesterday. I started with a cold/flu lurgy, came…

living the dream at a gentler pace

I haven’t always lived at a gentler pace. Until April 2019, I’d worked in jobs of the hustle and crush it variety. 5:30 a.m. starts, long days, and travel the length and breadth of the country were the norm. My daily commute to the office could be two hours each…
