Advance my personal photo/writing projects

I lose track of this conversation with myself (and yes, there are a couple of other folks who've read this stuff and commented to me, but mostly it feels very singular). But I do want to leave an update.

When this challenge to write about the change in my life came up several months ago I had no idea where I'd be heading. Yes, I thought maybe I'd get some more writing. I thought I'd focus on some of my personal writing/foto projects that were being neglected because I was so busy the last couple of years.

It was very nice to get the email the other day, telling me my changeeverything 2009 resolution blog had been short-listed. Not sure how many were in the running, but I let that thought go easily enough. It reminds me of the first time I swam as part of mini-triathalons in my home town.

One of the great things about re-invention is that I get to re-connect with a lot of people I’ve enjoyed working with in the past. Yes, the current re-invention is driven by necessity: I need to find new ways to put more flow into my current cash stream. But that doesn’t mean I have to be a dull boy about it. Quite the opposite.

OK. It’s about two weeks into my current reality show: the life of Hans as he re-invents himself for the (how many times is it now?) in his life.

Several months ago my major client let me know that there’d be “changes” in 2009. I’m not someone who welcomes change, and I tend to get fretful when “change” means less work, less money, less stability.
