Hi knitters

For those interested, Helen has been posting a lot of discounts for her Patreon content over the last few weeks. If you have a Patreon, you could always join up as a free member to be notified the next time she puts a sale on.

I'm not affiliated with her or anything, I just like her content and would like to see more people discover her lessons. There's a good mix of basics and technical material in my opinion.

I am curious about whether anyone has found (and ideally enjoyed) books that turn some of the more common tropes on their head? For example:

Vamp x human but the human has wealth and the vamp is broke and kind of a mess

Werewolf or Orc x human but the human is bigger or more dominant

Bigger or more power-bottom omegas

Scrawny top x big beefy bottom

Interspecies supernatural pairings like vamp /werewolf / fae couples or poly

Doesn't have to be PNR that's just what's springing to mind presently

That kinda thing. Anything ringing bells?

Hi all

I did the OTEN course back in 2020 but at the time no one really looked at it twice, recruiters only want the Diploma (which I totally get). But I did find it interesting and want to do the Diploma

I know HIMAA is the gold standard but it's also the most expensive (for me anyway, no uni in NSW does the Diploma). So my only other option is TalentMed which are a bit cheaper.

HIMs - when you've recruited people who studied through TalentMed rather than HIMAA, did you feel their skills were comparable to a HIMAA-educated graduate?

Students - what was your experience like with TalentMed?

Any info would be great, thanks

Hi all

I'm looking for something focussed on tax or forensic accounting. Numbers that don't add up, business registrations that don't match trading names, that kind of stuff. Is anyone aware of anything like that out there?

Hi all

I have a machine that uses a Wernard foot pedal. Unfortunately, I dropped it, which caused the toe-end to snap. I jury-rigged it with marine tape, and it will make the electrical connection, return spring no longer works. I am trying to find a replacement that's compatible with the connector. The pedal has a socket on it that the electrical cord plugs into, which is obviously different to modern machines.

Actual Wernard vintage pedals cost an arm and a leg, so I am wondering if there are other pedals that are compatible with the plug that would ordinarily connect to the Wernard pedal's socket?

Any help much appreciated.
