Lately, I’ve been reading more than I have been writing. It’s odd to find myself in this predicament. I read Laura Davis’ book The Last Thing He Told Me in 2 days. I stayed up all night the 2nd night just to finish reading it, and then threw the book because I was so mad …
After near burnout from trying to keep up with writing content for 10 websites, I decided to do some analyzing and determine my next best course of action. The biggest change of all had to do with 3 of my online stores. I merged them all into one, and it has been the most liberating …
I’ve been trying to find the right amount of time to write along with all of my other responsibilities. That’s not always easy because I know that I write better first thing in the morning. I suppose that has a lot to do with the fact that I always did the majority of my writing …
Remember that time not so long ago when I made the comment that AI couldn’t possibly replace a human writer? The results of my experiment are in, and I think I’m going to have to eat my own words. I started and launched a blog in February of this year. The content was generated using …

This week I allowed something to sidetrack my progress. Everything was going well. I made two sales, and I sent those out early, but when I decided to create some new items, it completely stalled my progress. I had several new items that needed to be embroidered, and I woke up Tuesday thinking about my …
After much introspection, I decided it was time to make some changes to my business model. This pertained mostly to the ecommerce businesses that I created over the past 3 years. June was such a busy month for me. I planned to make the grand announcement on July 27th (which coincidentally is my oldest son’s …
During the course of this long weekend, I actually made several huge steps towards progress. On top of launching 2 more websites, I started designing and prepping another. I should have it up and running in a few weeks. I decided, why slow down now? I think I’ll be able to find the extra time …
