Feast
Modesto, California. July 5th Darcy's eyes flickered open, fighting against the sharp morning light that was enveloping the bedroom.

How to get started in the web industry with no commercial experience
Groundhog day Around 20 years ago I was struggling in a job with very long hours which was affecting my health physically and mentally. Even though the salary was great, it was a real gruelling type of gig. I'd get up at 4:30am for a day shift which would start at 5:30am and finish just before 6pm.
