Mostly August, and there's rarely much uptick in September either. Then again I have turned down some big projects in August simply because I have family staying and want to enjoy some time off.

In 2022, my best month was again August followed closely by March and my worst was December. In 2021, my best month was October and my worst was December. I have been noticing lately that a good month is almost always followed by a bad one…

Considering that most of us work with languages, we should all double or triple-check our spelling.
Thank you!
