I recently read Dru Ann Love’s post about all her
virtual
conference activities.
It was nice
to hear that someone else is platform bouncing as much as I am.
Zoom and GoToWebinar and Facebook Live and,
and, and… whew.
The list goes on.
I’m going to get Zoom burn out before I get
COVID.
Of course, it would probably help
if I wasn’t supporting three different on-line events through my day job as a
graphic designer.
Meanwhile, authoring
hasn’t stopped just because we can’t go talk to people.
Online sales and launches have always been
important, but now they’re even more so.
Between the two, it’s as though my computer
centered life has become a mushroom cloud of eye fatigue and poor posture.
On the plus side, I have now introduced my
dog to everyone I’ve ever had a meeting with as he head butts my office door
open on a routine basis.
Currently, Kato
would like to play ball and I would like to do that also, so I’m going to do a
quick update on my author news and then get on out to the backyard!

Bethany, I hear you on the virtual meeting fatigue! Between Zoom, Teams, Go-To-Meeting and others I’m zipping from meeting to meeting without the benefit walking from one place to the other. Some backyard time sounds awesome!
ReplyDeleteZoom! Our professional and social lives are now shrunk inside a digital screen. Thank goodness for backyards. And Kato!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the feeling of burnout from virtual meeting land. Let's get outside!
