    Achieving your wildest dreams or is it worth being comfortable in your job

    IDEA SIDE HUSTLE SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    Hi there! :) I’ve read through your thread and actually have a lot of thoughts about this. I haven’t achieved my big entrepreneurial dreams yet, but I’ve managed to grow and keep a profitable e-commerce business in a small niche for more than a decade now, so maybe I know a thing or two that...

    Art as a fastlane business?

    EXECUTION 
    Hi there! I’m just speaking as someone who enjoys occasionally reading and researching art-related topics (not actual experience in the field), so of course take what I’ll say with a grain of salt. Is it possible? Probably. Are there easier ways to reach Fastlane? Also probably (if you haven't...

    Aha! Look who’s back (if you thought I would be that type that promises she will do something here and then disappear forever, you really have no idea how persistent I can be when I want something). I've been away from here for a while since I had to focus a bit more on my store—there was an...

    Thank you for reading my posts! Oh my God, thank you so so much for your offer! I'll definitely need a beta-reader for the inevitable grammar issues and awkward sentences I'm sure my novel will have. :) Though it will take some months before I'm able to show the story to anyone-it was originally...

    EXECUTION 
    Hi there! :) So, again with the quick bullet points: – The editing personal guide is growing some bones, so I think soon enough I might be able to start the editing process on the stories I’ve written with more knowledge on what and how to fix them – Testing some stuff on Pinterest for my...

    Thank you for your inputs, I appreciate them! I hate Amazon too, precisely because of all the reasons you mentioned. I don’t know if it would be worth it for you, but besides Amazon and Shopify, have you thought about selling your books on Apple, Kobo, GooglePlay? I’m sure you’ve probably heard...

    EXECUTION 
    In my case, it’s someone I already knew! She had asked me to read the stories, so I didn’t really have to do anything to get a beta reader. But usually people find beta readers on Facebook groups or writing forums, it’s not difficult to get one–I would say the actual difficulty relies on getting...

    Hi there! :) Quick bullet points for this month: - Still learning more about developmental editing and copyediting. My plan is to build my own personal guide to fiction editing that I can refer to whenever I need it. - Started writing a new story (oopsie?), but I’m not setting a deadline for...

    Where I was, where I am, where I’m going, and lessons along the way

    INTRO 
    Thank you! I'm from Latin America. I prefer not to disclose it since it's in a super-ultra-mega-tiny niche and my store (and therefore myself) would be easily identifiable if I told it here. But I can assure you, it's the kind of thing most people would probably never imagine exists hahaha

    Hi there! :) This month I managed to write the posts for my newsletter as I planned to last month. I also ended up writing one more story! 2023 has been a great year so far. I’m still focusing my attention on learning more about how to edit novels and writing that story I’m posting online...
