This Information is For You
The free weekly newsletter is designed to help the wanna-preneur to the new digital creator who is so busy creating that no one has time to think about planning for today, let alone for the future. What paid subscribers get that free email people don't:
Every single post (not just the free ones)
Access to the archives
Bonus tips and links.
When you ask a question, I will always answer; however, as a paid subscriber, I may dedicate an article to you based upon that question/answer session with appropriate links to your formats.
The pride that comes with knowing your modest subscription payment helps to provide support for the creation of new writing and ideas.
I’m working on making the paid tier even more interesting for you with new content formats, interviews, and a lot more.
If you want in, it’s currently $5 a month or $50 a year. That’s the equivalent of 1/4 of an ice cream cake x 12, and Goin’ Solo is better for you.
Why Listen to Li’l Ol’ Me?
I’ll be brief:
In 2005 I graduated with a 4.0 master’s degree in history from DePaul University, along with becoming a Filson Fellow, a research fellow for Kentucky Historical Society, and a member of Phi Alpha Theta.
I learned how to write with citations in 2005, even though I knew journalism well. The Colorado Press Association awarded 13 awards to me in 1995, along with their “Shining Star” award.
In 2005 I also began to write for the now defunct BuyAndHold.com and stayed with that online financial institution for a decade, learning the ins-and outs of investments. Another gig with the print publication, Better Investing, lasted for two years. This is where I gathered my initial financial savvy.
In 2006 I began developing content for two guys in Chicago who were buying and flipping domains with content. I figured I could do that, too, and I developed a site, monetized it, and sold it two years later for a down payment plus some on the house I reside in now.
In 2010, I began to experience family health problems, and by 2013 I had lost most of my writing gigs and online digital content when I began to care for dying parents and for my late husband.
In 2023, I met mentors who re-introduced me to digital content development and the possibilities of earning even more than I did in 2008.
Now, I’m sharing my experiences and knowledge with you through Goin’ Solo.
ASD and Me
I was diagnosed with Asperger’s late in life (my early 40s), and I was thrilled to learn that I wasn’t a sociopath who couldn’t hold down a 9-5 because of my aversion to being around people who told me what to do every. single. day. while dressed in clothes that felt as though they were eating into my skin. What a relief!
Now, of course, I’m part of the total Autistic Spectrum, since inclusion is imperative in this day and age. At the same time, when you meet an autistic person, you’ve met an autistic person. I’m cool, you’re cool, but your cool is yours and my cool is mine.
I’m hyper-focused on this topic of digital assets at the moment, and I really need to flesh this information out for an online course. That said, I’m also peering into the future to develop another publication focused on entrepreneurial women with ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder). If you’re interested in this latter topic, join me at my Facebook profile, where I focus on autism and entrepreneurship.
