    FINALLY a breakthrough! Now what?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    After months of indecision and inaction I had 3 ideas just yesterday, two of which I will definitely pursue. I'm still on the fence with the third. It's like I was in the "need zone". I just found one need after another and ways to solve them. It was incredible! It was all so clear! I was...

    When you get to the part of copying the ads, do you plan to do it by hand or type it? I don't know when that letter was written but it sounds like it was before the PC. Think it would make a difference?

    Thanks for the donation! Her dad is still alive. Are you technically an orphan if only one parent dies? Thanks all for the advice. I'm going through them and doing what I can. It's amazing how well everything starts falling into place when you have focus. I have focus because I wasn't...

    I started an Indie Go Go campaign for a 12 year old girl that was in a car wreck and has been in the hospital for almost 4 months. Her mother died in the crash and her brother lost vision in one eye. I need ideas to promote this. Would advertising on facebook be worth it? Check it out...

    We've raised almost $300 which is good but I was hoping for more by now. Where are some other places I could promote this? Facebook has the option to pay for advertising do you think it would be worth it?

    The indie go go campaign is live! Build Lauren a Home | Indiegogo Please pass this on even if you can't make a donation. Liberty, I messed with the audio for probably an hour. It works fine on the movie maker software, but when I save it for some reason it just cuts off.

    She's been practicing writing in a notepad. I was thinking of offering a sheet from her notebook (maybe framed?) for anyone that donates over $100. Would that be an incentive? I also thought about getting some canvasses and have her paint on them and maybe give those with a $500 donation...

    I'm looking at Indie Go Go now, thanks! I thought it was mostly for creative projects so I didn't even consider it. I'm researching how to start a campaign now. Before I officially kick it off I'd like to run my copy by everyone here for feedback and refinement. And thank you for the offer...

    You should focus on where you are headed, not where you are coming from. You only talked about what you are quitting, but didn't mention what you are starting. What is your plan if you quit school? Honestly the scenario you laid out that you don't like sounds pretty good to me. It may not...
