It's been cold here in Australia (we are in winter), yet I've been reading online about how hot it's been in Europe. While I've been shivering, I cannot relate to how hot it is somewhere else. And because we mostly live in warmth and heat for 9 months a year, our homes aren't built for the cold. We don't have any central heating so when we get up in the morning, the house is cold.
For heating we use our reverse-cycle air conditioning unit, of which we only have one, so it never reaches every corner of all the rooms all the time.
Anyway, because it's been cold, I've spent more time indoors writing, reading and studying (I think it's always important to keep up-to-date with the writing and publishing industry because things change so fast). In fact I've spent so much time indoors recently that two of my neighbours said, "Welcome back," when they saw me on my front veranda because they thought I must have been away because they hadn't seen me for a while.
Well, here are a few things that I've come across online and I hope you find them useful, interesting and profitable too.
