What I'm doing now

Reading

It's summer! Which for me means vintage science fiction. I've just started Raymond Feist's Faerie Tale, which I somehow missed when it came out in the 80s.

Learning

For work, I'm completing the Google Project Management certificate and the Adobe Content Creator certificate at Coursera. I'm also taking an instructional design course from the University of Illinois at Coursera, and it's surprisingly good.

For my hobby-coding, I'm going through LinkedIn Learning's PHP with MySQL Essential Training, which is an excellent course. It's helping me get my PHP up to date (especially with things like security) and fill in some things I never knew or have forgotten. I'm looking forward to part 2, which will cover some things about content management that I've been wrestling with and just can't seem to solve on my own. I highly recommend this course, even though it's a couple of years old and the version of PHP it teaches is no longer the most current one.

I'm also looking into 11ty or Vue.js for a personal project. We shall see.
