    Hey Von,

    When I go to Teri’s download page (per your recommendation), all I get is a blank page, but no download for the Transform Effects. Any suggestions?

    Love the podcast!

    Really great episode, you guys!

    Being in a similar situation as Dicke (full time job + freelancing, working from home all the time), to say I was “happy” or “relieved” when I heard about your problems with too muck working and too little relaxing time, wouldn’t be appropriate, cause we’re still have to fight this issue. But to know that I’m not alone, in a way kind of helps! :)

    Thanks a lot, keep up the great work!

    Best,
    Sasa

    Great podcast! I always look forward to them.

    I listen to them when I’m illustrating and find them great for getting alot of work done without distracting me.

    Thanks for all the effort everyone!

    The comment about making a conscious decision to good off is no dead on. At least that way if you’re going to spend the next hour watching reruns, you *enjoy* them, then get back to work.
