Back from the Ecoli Wars (and Shiny Things!)

Hey Zazzlepreneurs!

Thank you for all your lovely well wishes!

So sorry for the radio silence lately – seems like I caught the dreaded Ecoli bug that's been plaguing the UK thanks to those pesky "Meal Deals" (seriously, who can trust a good bargain anymore?). Anyway, after a round of antibiotics (and feeling much perkier, I might add!), I'm back in action and ready to tackle some long-overdue chores (and content creation, of course!).

Remember that teaser I gave you about Google's love for "Situational Content"? Well, get ready for a game-changer! I'm putting together a super helpful guide with a ridiculously long but incredibly useful prompt that will basically write your product descriptions for you. I hope it will appease the Google anti AI Gods and keep that content beast well-fed. Stay tuned for that!

Speaking of content, I've also got some fresh, FREE graphics cooking up for our VIP members, adding the finishing touch to your $15 graphics bonanza this month! Speaking of finishing touches, Zazzle is currently on hold while I focus on this content creation frenzy. Shiny things, you know? They just have a way of calling to me, and let's be real, ADHD doesn't exactly help matters.

On that note, here's a hilarious little story from my weekend that perfectly captures the ADHD life:

My lovely adult children and their partners (all the young whippersnappers in their early 20s) were over for a hot food delivery extravaganza. As they were setting the feast on the table, I, ever the dutiful hostess, disappeared to grab some cutlery. Five minutes later, the food's getting cold, and my daughter comes looking for me, fearing the worst. What does she find? Me, in the pouring rain, flashlight in hand, gleefully scooping slugs into a bin liner! "Mom, what in the world...?" she sputters.

"Well ...I noticed all these black specks on the lawn, and wouldn't you know it, it's a full-blown slug invasion! Can't have them munching on my precious plants now, can we?"

Classic ADHD, folks. Classic. The ability to completely forget about the task at hand and dive headfirst into something completely unrelated (and slightly obsessive). My daughter found it highly amusing (and yes, the hands were thoroughly washed afterwards!).

So there you have it, a glimpse into the slightly chaotic but ever-so-real world of yours truly. Stay tuned for more content goodness, and remember, a little ADHD never hurt anyone (well, maybe the slugs)!
