About Writing Is Great!

Writing Is Great! is about writing for yourself to exercise your mind and stimulate your memory with a practice of writing. For those of us who have graduated to what some call retirement, we need to exercise our minds as well as our bodies. We need mental fitness as well as physical fitness to take advantage of the gift of age. I outline my writing exercise and practices with Tips & Tricks, How To’s, Questions, Ways To, and so on, to show how to create and sustain this exercise for your mind. And I discuss how this shows me the joy, the happiness, the revelation that writing brings. Writing Is Great! is your weekly reminder to keep exercising your mind through practicing writing and to improve your life by raising your spirits and releasing your imagination.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
