    One Day As An Erotic Writer And I'm Already Popular - Why Can't It always Be This Way?

    MARKETING 
    Lol, this is a bit of a tongue-in-cheek rant. The other day I posted my first erotic story on a website, and I'm already one of the most popular writers on there. I mean, it's great, and it's nice to be noticed, but I wish I could bag this kind of success with my "normal" writing. Shit, if it...

    Digital Writing is Dead and AI Has Killed It

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE QUESTION 
    In a thread titled "Fastlane Opportunities for Writers" from 2021, MJ says: This was even before AI was mentioned in the thread. Is it still worth it to write on Medium as a beginner in Entrepreneurship? Or even write at all? I've started writing consistently for the last 3 months now...

    Please Define Value.

    MINDSET 
    Hello audience and fellow thinkers, I have come to the realization that my writing lacks the excitement and engagement that I desire. It seems to be more of a snooze button on an alarm rather than a thrilling adventure. I understand that this may be due to my perception of value, which may not...

    The story of how I built a subscription newsletter (about entrepreneurship).

    MINDSET EXECUTION 
    It's the year 2022. Suddenly, without warning, we all seem to have gotten caught up in a recent gold rush of "newsletters." How did this happen? No one knows. Even @MJ DeMarco experienced this, as he described here. Usually, I'm pretty good at not getting sucked into trends, but around 8-9...

    To DIY Content Marketing or Hire?

    MARKETING 
    Hi Fastlaners! I've been growing my business for 5 years and haven't done much content marketing. I'm now starting to develop the content side of things.

    Results...Finally!

    EXECUTION 
    Back in late 2010, I threw my hat into the writing/self-publishing ring. A friend had used a self-publishing service to get his first book into print, and it seemed like a good idea to test out. Needless to say, I knew nothing about marketing books or marketing anything at the time. I made many...

    Hi all! Pleased to meet you. I'm a mid-thirties woman from Europe, and I'll refrain from posting any specifics - for now, at least - because I joined after reading Unscripted to find a community of like-minded people to bounce ideas off each other, not to promote my business.

    "I'm pregnant"

    SOCIAL MEDIA INTRO 
    An FTE for sure! My wife called me with these two thrilling, intoxicating and downright scary little words just over 3 months ago. I knocked over my chair in a hipster coffee shop, hopped on a Bird scooter and floored it home! I don't really like talking about myself or my goals (probably...
