    Thanks Lex, I seem to remember you said Upwork was shot. I was hoping for something better, will check out blackbeans. Thanks.

    Have you ever used a freelancing copywriting site?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I'm trying to save up some cash to pay an editor and illustrator for my book, a lot of people have suggested I try copywriting. I'm browsing a few sites now like Contena and was wondering if anyone on here has used Contena or similar?

    Fed Up With Your Country? Where Is Left to Go?

    HOT! 
    Very interesting reading the replies on this. I think I can sum it up as "the grass is always greener on the other side" I think about leaving sometimes, as someone with brown skin and a mixed raced daughter I feel my options are limited and it is disturbing the amount of overt racism in the UK...

    Thanks for the info, it is as I suspected but thought there might be some hidden info gem there somewhere. I'll keep plugging away, also going to take the slowlane route of sending out manuscripts to agents/publishers etc.

    Thanks for the info. I have zero funds and am finding it very difficult to save. The only thing I can do for free is write. I'm just trying to find a route to market that doesn't cost me thousands... What do you think of Kindle Unlimited?

    So I'm back after a long depression and I've started writing again, in my current situation I think it's about the only chance I have... Anyways, I was looking at the whole Goodreads route and in order to get on their author list I want to try and publish through Kindle Unlimited and then get...

    Lolz. I thought you loved Trump, went to his house and everything. Wasn't he the savvy businessman that was going to turn America?

    HOT! 
    I was thinking about your post the other day Leron. You see the thing is I am almost 50 and grew up in the UK in the 1970s and 80s when the country was definitely not woke. Back in those days I was chased by racist skinheads as a child, called racist names sometimes by my teachers at school...

    If like you say you are a "person of colour", then Eastern Europe is not the place for you. I've heard good things about Hungary though.

    Reddit r/WSB bankrupts Hedge Fund using Robinhood

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Lol. This is what happens when you use Google as a teacher, but you don't actually click on the headline. As you can see below it was adopted by the American financial markets in 1937 with the restriction that you could only short a rising stock. That restriction was removed in 2007 (albeit as...

    Reddit r/WSB bankrupts Hedge Fund using Robinhood

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Good. Hedge funds are morally repugnant, or rather the idea that you can bet on a company losing. Things started to go downhill fast the day they allowed that shit to happen. It's open for corruption and I'm glad that people made money when others made instead of the other way round.

    Getting Sued For $70,000 (With Zero Assets or Funds)

    HOT! 
    Yeah there you go. If it was me I would just block them on all forms of communication and get on with my life. They are about as likely to sue as I am to become the next Queen of England.

    Praise in public. Criticise in private.

    My favourite is: "If you can't be a great inspiration to your children, be a terrible warning." :) By the way, what is the context of your 'praise in public, criticise in private'?
