    What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Everyone... including your family members and the person you sleep next to at night. Even your siblings and your children (of adult age ). No one is safe... and that's the real truth.

    What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    It's been a few years... and I honestly would add that this would stay the same, with some exceptions. You're not obligated to "take anyone with you" regardless of whether or not you share the same family, systemic challenges, or anything that remotely matches you on the surface level. Why...

    Dallas....are you in here?!

    MEETUPS 
    Sorry it's been a minute since I checked in. I'm in the Richardson TX area still. I'll be logging in more often (1-2x a week)

    Dallas....are you in here?!

    MEETUPS 
    From Staten Island (NY). Moved to Dallas 5 years ago and I'm in North Dallas. Plano is dope. So is Frisco, but I find Plano somewhat closer to the "Dallas" metro... depends on whether you'll be working, where, etc. for suggestions.

    Proud of you for taking your first steps to extricating yourself and stepping away strategically @legaljanie

    Looking for writers to interview

    English is my native language and I NEED to vegetate after that amount of time. People don't understand, writing isn't easy. It just seems that way. Kudos to you, for real.

    Looking for writers to interview

    Yes, because I actually come to work 90-110 minutes early explicitly to get the words in. Weekends, not really. I have a significant other who takes up my time. Evenings and weekends are for other things.

    Looking for writers to interview

    Focus on income. With KU, Cockygate, GetLoud, and just the drama, publishing feels more like a Zero-Sum hunger game than a financial opportunity. I've had to switch my priorities to put a full time job and my private brand strategy clients in front of publishing. The moment I go from launching...

    Arguing With a Sidewalker

    MINDSET 
    It's amazing how short-sighted we are, when we stick to the rules. Hopefully you shell-shock her to wake up and see things differently.

    HOT! 
    Confession Time. I am a young, heterosexual woman under 35 woman living in the contiguous US. I joined this forum 5 years ago, and was just going through this phase where I wanted and needed a relationship, especially after a trying divorce. For the record, my ex husband and I are still...

    {PROGRESS + ACCOUNTABILITY} LAURYN'S RECONSTRUCTION: GETTING TO 50 SHADES OF PAID

    PUBLISHING 
    Back again. For those of you who are aware, there've been a series of shakeups with Amazon. They have not only created a zero-sum environment for authors in Kindle Unlimited, but the experience has become toxic. Many authors lost their accounts because of the drama, most of which is related to...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I've read it too - listening to the Audible version (and picked up Fastlane on Audible too)... Oh SHIT. This book is so full of quotables, and great quotes. I'm so glad that I came across this forum, because now that I'm on the path to my own Fastlane - no shitty boss, job, or commute anymore...

    {PROGRESS + ACCOUNTABILITY} LAURYN'S RECONSTRUCTION: GETTING TO 50 SHADES OF PAID

    PUBLISHING 
    Okay, I've stepped back in to say I am a full time, self-published author/entrepreneur. Most of my niggling financial obligations have been paid off. I'm learning to be even more financially savvy, and I'm also leveraging my time to learn to invest, and to put energy toward getting into real...
