Hello! A warm welcome to all the new faces here!

A different twist to this month's read... it's quick! Time is of the essence because I'm away at a conference called UpLift Live - all about LinkedIn and marketing. If we're not connected on LinkedIn yet then please come say hi.

Some of you have said you make a cuppa when you read this. This one is super quick - the kettle won't even have time to boil!

Font of the month: Organic Hand​

Released in October 2025 by Studio FunShop. They say: “Each letter was drawn by hand, capturing relaxed strokes, natural curves, and subtle wobbles that make every word feel personal and alive.” Why have I picked this? I'm having a little brand refresh for myself and I want to inject a little fun and personality into some of my graphics. I've asked a fellow graphic designer friend to help me. A shoemaker never has his own shoes as my mother says.

Now time for...

Watch and listen. A free webinar on Fonts and Accessibility – coming up next Monday, March 31, 11am GMT. It’s free to watch, produced by the folk over at Monotype.

Learn. If, like me, you find it tricky keeping up to date with the latest releases in design and creating, you’ll love the Creators Toolbox. This newsletter has the latest in what's happening globally with the tech creators out there. Creators Toolbox newsletter.

Join in. Eventbrite. Top tip – I've chatted with my biz pals recently about “being in rooms that are new”. By that I mean, don't only go to places, events, and spaces where your friends are. Yes, you’ll have fun, but are they gonna buy from you? Search on Eventbrite to find local networking events. I found a couple that are free, or for a small fee. If in-person events are not for you, see if there are webinars you can attend remotely. No stress.

I've done a lot of in-person networking this month. Netwalking, a celebration of Women in Business, Adobe Creator Live (that was a lot of fun and I finally found good Matcha). One of them included a London Afternoon Tea Bus, thanks to my friend Em, a cake designer. I had no clue what was going on - but guess what? It was a tour of London seeing the sights and sharing a couple of hours learning about the other attendees who are small businesses! I got to be a tourist while talking to them about marketing and having a newsletter. I also worked with Em to set hers up.

Which leads me to ask you…. How come you’re here

Okay, maybe this email wasn’t THAT short after all!
