I have a number of things that are not going quite well in my life right now, but this blog is not going to be me complaining about the same things every day, no one would want to read that, nor would I enjoy writing it. you could scroll back a few days and see what’s going on, trust me it’s still like that.
About a week and a half ago I was celebrating the fact that there were 300 views to my medium page, and hoping that I’d hit 500 for the month. well. I woke up to find out that there had been 514 for the month of March, which is very nice to see when I think about all of the work I do, and how open i’m willing to get in order to feel something from the process of writing it. I would encourage anyone who ever thought about writing to just go ahead and do it, even if it’s just for you. it feels great, and things can become clearer when they’re right in front of you on a page, much clearer than they are, tangled up in the brain.
With everything that’s bothering me about the way things are with my living arrangements, and lack of funds, I decided that I was really going to totally immerse myself in my writing. Not only am I going to keep my head in writing, I’m also going to figure out a good way to fund my life by doing it. there are a number of factors keeping me from being able to get a regular job, I won’t get into them all here.
Last night I went into mega laser hyper focus mode, getting recommendations from my AI assistant on how to expand my audience, and turn clicks into possible revenue. It had so many ideas, some of them I will definitely ignore: I already have too much social media in my life, i’m not fucking joining Pinterest, for instance. some of the ideas did seem viable though, like SEO, using reddit and quora, and cleaning up my medium page to make it more readable and less clunky.
I also put myself and a selection of some of my articles on freelance writing job board websites, in case I could ever get someone to pay me to write what they want me to write, i’d gladly do that. not that I know anything, but I think If you find something you like to do, that never feels like work and comes naturally, you should try to utilize that to get in where you fit in.
I don’t think it’s completely impossible to do it, which is weird because I’m pretty used to not believing I can do anything. This is my job now.
