Rory is available...: Keeping going
http://roryisavailable.blogspot.com/2011/11/keeping-going.html
Stories and soundbites on the journey to my next job. Wednesday, 9 November 2011. Eighty 'angels' contacted so far. Each one receives three of my RiA cards, one of them bearing a handwritten greeting. Some of my angels are responding. I've had 8 replies to date. All of them kind and encouraging. And one contains a hint of a possibility of a maybe regarding a possibility of a small amount of remunerative work. A meeting is in the diary for next week. 9 November 2011 at 15:26. Blow, Gabriel, blow.

Mr Gnome's Blog: Gasping
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011/10/gasping.html
Gnome news is good news. Thursday, 20 October 2011. Tickets for this remarkable entertainment should be overprinted with a health warning: 'Severe danger of hy. Resistance is futile as James Corden and fellow cast members serve up their sensational seaside soufflé (we're in Brighton 1963). Very, very funny - and, for me, far more engaging than the mechanical mayhem of 'traditional' farce. The stunning sight gags and multiple mis-identifications are shot through with real human emotion. Maybe in your town.

Stories and soundbites on the journey to my next job. Wednesday, 9 November 2011. Blow, Gabriel, blow. These are my kind of angels: swooping, soaring and blowing up a storm on those outrageously oversized trumpets. And today has not been without angelic intervention. One of my 'angels' took the trouble to telephone me. Massively morale-boosting. We discussed the hint of a glimmer of potentiality of some freelance editorial work. Nothing definite at this stage.

Rory is available...: Angelic
http://roryisavailable.blogspot.com/2011/11/angelic.html
Stories and soundbites on the journey to my next job. Tuesday, 1 November 2011. If you're looking for a job, it's worth chatting to an angel - in fact, to as many angels as possible. My savvy career coach says: 'Think of all the people you've worked with over the years - and then list those with whom you've enjoyed a positive, productive relationship: the people who have an idea (to a greater or lesser extent) of what you have to offer in the workplace: in short, the people who "get" you.

Mr Gnome's Blog: The Village Trumpeter
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011/11/village-trumpeter.html
Gnome news is good news. Wednesday, 2 November 2011. Tragically, the local trumpeter is, as they say in Botswana, late. Consequently, when the need for announcement arises, it's now a matter of 'toot it yourself'. Blowing his own trumpet with the best of them, therefore, is Rory Keegan - editor, writer and all-purpose project manager. Thanks to advice from a savvy 'career coach', he's determined to raise awareness of his imminent availability on the job market. Pop across to the Rory is Available.

Mr Gnome's Blog: May 2011
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Gnome news is good news. Monday, 9 May 2011. Inveterate traveller Mr Gnome is in the north-eastern corner of the United States visiting the (comfortably small) community of Camden, Maine. He's rapidly falling under the spell of this ultra-charming small town, vividly coming to life with the arrival of a very late (to Mr G) spring. Camden, a former mill town, is now a summer resort: yachty and boaty. But with plenty of pottering pleasures for landlubbers. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Harry at Ethel's party.

Mr Gnome's Blog: Chippy
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011/10/mr-gnome-and-i-have-emerged-from.html
Gnome news is good news. Monday, 17 October 2011. Mr Gnome and I have emerged from tonight's performance of the RSC's new production of Peter Weiss's Marat/Sade. Does this classic example of the 1960s 'theatre of cruelty' still have the power to shock? But it wasn't the profusion of prosthetic willies or the character with compulsive masturbation issues (I know, SO last century) that left one speechless. So come on, RSC, in what rarefied world is £10 not enough for a single fish supper? Maybe in your town.

Rory is available...: Aspin you shall receive
http://roryisavailable.blogspot.com/2011/11/aspin-you-shall-receive.html
Stories and soundbites on the journey to my next job. Thursday, 3 November 2011. Aspin you shall receive. The cards are hitting the doormats - and clicking in to email in-trays. Bread is being cast upon water. And helpful pithy responses are coming back to me. Particular thanks to plain-speaking Ian Aspin of Really Good Thinking for his Eleven Absoluetly Unbreakable Commandments for Connecting with People Online and Off. Well worth pondering - and acting upon. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mr Gnome's Blog: September 2007
http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Gnome news is good news. Monday, 10 September 2007. Quiet days are the most dangerous. Quiet days are the most dangerous. Days that are in between more important days. Like today in Krakow. Yesterday we arrived by plane. Tomorrow the trucks carrying our bikes will catch up with us and we will start our holiday journey to Budapest. So today is a free day and we have time on our hands. There’s no point in unpacking. We go into one of the tall buildings where there are maps and photographs. At each stop...

http://mrgnomeisblogging.blogspot.com/2011/10/available.html
Gnome news is good news. Saturday, 29 October 2011. Next year is looking good: a golden jubilee, a Titanic anniversary, a Dickens of a bicentenary - and a wee sporting event in London. And, toot the trumpet, Rory Keegan (Mr Gnome's under writer) is available for employment from 1 January. Hating to be a bore, Keegan nonetheless boldly invites random readers of Mr Gnome's blog to peek at his new Rory is available. Pass it on to a potential employer - or contact Rory for a chat.
