It’s worth mentioning again, but I’m doubling down. It’s been about four months since shifting my focuses more on being a “creator” overall. Now, after 13 years, I am putting my books on the back burner. What I create aside from that comes just as naturally, but hits home much harder. I love writing, but…

Expressing Gratitude
What are you doing this evening? This afternoon, I clicked on a pop up notification on my page from Meta, and signed up for updates – and event notifications. This comes after being eligible to become an Amazon Affiliate through my Facebook page, as a creator. 😳 I am very grateful for everything that is…
Officially an Amazon Affiliate!
There’s a lot to unfold here! I am both stunned and very proud of myself! I am now an Amazon Affiliate – a program for creators such as myself. This means ads for Amazon will be showcased on reels and other content I select! I earn a small commission when purchases are made. Honestly, I’m…
And Breathe
Taking time for myself is going to be more beneficial than I realize. I am already a mother – I need a break! This morning, I scrolled through Tibetan sheepskin handbags. I want one, for myself. Not to impress anyone, I love the texture of the wool. I’m going to take a walk today with…
Just Like That
My plaque is centered in our living room, for visitors to see. I originally didn’t want it, but it is a major accomplishment. My mother, despite our many differences, is proud of me. She gets wrapped up in the past, and will not change. But she at least said she’s proud. If you’re self made…
Great News!
I wokeup to an incredible email, and couldn’t be happier! Last week, I submitted my art to The Writing Fae, and it was accepted! I am so grateful for this opportunity. I typically push my writing, but I have a ton of Fantasy themed art work, both by traditional mediums and digital. I am unsure…
Progress – Day by Day
I saw someone say not to talk about your accomplishments, and I beg to differ. When someone sees that you can achieve something, it helps them realize they can as well. If we all acted like there’s a secret code or recipe, it makes us look like we don’t want anyone else succeeding. I have…
Sustaining Effort
People don’t like hearing great things take time. Yet, anytime I’ve rushed anything, it simply never worked. While forcing anything also fails you, building over time is way more sustainable. Establishing yourself and remaining consistent are key. I’ve come to realize that no matter how much I say this, it falls on deaf ears. I…
What Works
The short answer is consistency and dedication. The long answer is possibly unraveling for some. I would say you first need to stick with a plan, and execute the plan often. It will take your a good two to three years to see some type of results, but you’ll realize it’s something that needs constant…
