Time goes so fast and I haven't written a blog for a year, when I tell all my clients to write one a month! I've given the Quack logo a facelift and updated the site with the power of Shopify, so it's all fresh and new. As I approach the Autumn, it's been an unusual year having been diagnosed with breast cancer in February. I've continued to work throughout but the odd thing, and work has slipped a little as I attended radiotherapy, went through surgery and tried to keep all my plates in the air. But I've put myself...
