about

I love the coast and in particular, the area in which I live, the North East of England. It’s an uncomplicated life, for the past twelve years I’ve been away from the ‘big smoke’ … and the decision to relocate my business to the North has been the best move of my career. So far. I am a writer and have a lifetime of experience in publishing and personal development. I now consider myself a specialist in helping my clients with memoirs – that could entail a biography, or simply bringing diary pages to life. I tend not to advertise my business, word of mouth has always been kind so it’s no surprise that I do spend a couple of days per week networking. Peer collaboration can be very rewarding. Therefore, if you’d like to join me fortnightly for Wednesday ZOOM or either Tuesday or Thursday for (in-person) morning coffee, please get in touch. I’d love to meet you and perhaps help in any way possible. Thank you for stopping by the website. engage, develop, grow … with Go! charliekenny@live.co.uk

    Now is the time …

    It’s official, the end of Spring is imminent here in the UK. Where did that go? In turn, I’m now wondering how I haven’t managed to plant next season’s veg? The spuds, carrots, and greens I promised last year aren’t in the ground yet. I now beginning to feel a little left behind … although…

    Too busy for biz …

    It was set up to be a vibrant morning for breakfast networking. The sun was shining, our venue was organised and ready for a good number of guests, when to my great surprise, Mike had arrived to join the throng. We hadn’t seen Mike for a while, it must have been six weeks. ‘How are…

    Innovation, endurance

    Today I’ll thank networking, that opportunity that never goes away. Plus of course Norman for putting me back on the ‘straight and narrow!’

    Speaking the lingo

    thoughts on networking, collaboration, and the whole ‘people buy from people’ principle. It works by learning from those within our circle, those who may be ahead of our own business curve through experience,

    My shout.

    time out for a chat? It works.

    Look on the bright side

    It seems the faceless voices on the telephone couldn’t duplicate the in-person experience. The affinity or emotional connection one person has with another.

    Happiness 365!

    Like most everyone, I appreciate Christmas, it’s a break for me. The deeper meaning for some, and the time with family is welcome. Although for me, the knee-jerk giving, together with the binge consumerism brings disappointment.

    Know what you want?

    I was twelve years of age when I realised I needed to work for a living. How about you? It was the time I’d started secondary school. All my friends were riding cycles to and from school and so, naturally, I thought life would be so much better if I was able to ride instead…

  • A lighthouse for dark times

    I would sooner be a swimming rat than a sinking ship — at all events I can look around me for a little longer — and I remember how one of us, a rat with particularly bright eyes called Shelley, squeaked out, “Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world,”

    When it gets a little wacky!

    To give you an idea, here are a handful of things that help me stay on track or, in this case, get back on track.
