It’s a lonely Friday afternoon here at Canon Press. I’m busy cleaning up my desk (or at least aiming to), listening to Sixpence None the Richer, and wishing more people were around.

Mr Jones, Lucy, Austin, and Laura are all away on trips (visiting quite literally various corners of the world). And since Rachel Hoffmann is off somewhere else, I am the sole inhabitant of the “Canon Press Production Suite.” If only I weren’t so timid, I’d raise a ruckus. Instead I’m working on improving productivity and making my office a little neater. (I’m one of those people who tends to pile up papers everywhere.)

So, here’s to coworkers. Not only are they fun to talk to and all that jazz, but they make the world a fuller place. Or something.
