HB: A couple of people have asked if the credit crunch is affecting us. Er, no, not yet, it would seem. Even though expenditure can't get much more discretionary than spending a fairly large chunk of change on MS assessment, new assignments seem to keep on rolling in. Fingers crossed for that to continue. We're also hosting our first ever workshop at the end of this week (a place or two left in case you're interested), and another one to follow in Nov. Bookings have been very decent so far, so this is an experiment that we'll repeat on a bigger scale next year.
Some of the most interesting things we're doing at the moment are, alas, not something that we can talk about publicly in any detail - we're starting to talk to big publishers about things we can work on together: workshops, editorial work and the like. I think this'll be a sloooooow process, as this is the publishing industry after all, but I'd be disappointed if we got through 2009 without some quite significant changes.
Meanwhile, a joke. Y'all look like you need a joke, so here you are, credit-crunch themed an' all.
