Title Intro: Greetings fellow bloggers. Long time, no seeing nor typing from me in quite a while, right?

While in the dark cocoon of silence, I had to get a grip from the underwhelming regression of last year and not allow other people’s lack of dependability sway my motivation to complete my projects. 2021 was very frustrating with certain business contacts routinely not fulfilling any assistance whatsoever so I had to take a step back and put my energy into the universe to ask for reliable people to sincerely help and demonstrate cooperation where needed.

As of now this year has been vastly positive with my brand/marketing rep Arianna Wolfe (Thanks Dr. Mitchell for the plug!) to help my brand and niche expand into the social media market.

Comerica Bank has also become a willing participant with their debit/credit card processing technology to quickly generate revenue while at random promotional events and art shows.

Current To-Do Lineup:

-Edit, revise and protect all of my Intellectual Property

-Complete my Etsy page for online transactions with no unexpected hitches

-Feature my work on Etsy as three tier options – 1.Physical Art Frame, 2. E-Book, 3. NFT

-Currently in the middle stages of creating and printing a new, glossy business card with a QR scan code for intriguing parties that would like to instantaneously support my brand

I honestly don’t know how this will end up, but I’m still moving forward and even curious to see if I’ll end up successful or become another failure. We’ll soon see.

The Entrepreneurial Push: I’m currently working on converting my poems into voice memos to be converted into mp3 in combination with the quick reels from Instagram to give my brand a more audio flavor in concert with my visual and tangible material.

Quote of the Bi-Month: ‘Living in the moment is about quality of life. But as important as this is, you don’t want to live just any moment but the ‘right moment’; the moment that will bring you closer to where you want to be” ~ Robert Zoia

Outside of box thought: I’m hoping that the new freelance artist I’m working with can complete our project before the maximum time frame because honestly I’m still one piece behind to complete my full twenty hybrid catalog.

Man Law #69: Recognize when you’re being groomed by a cougar to become their plaything in the future. If you’re into older women, listen and carefully interpret older females in the community who might take a liking to you with a verbally subtle, back door option to revisit you in the future when both parties are single or even seeing each other to make the encounter more spicy.

Before I slide out: While I’m certainly not perfect, I know I’m not a fool either so concerted efforts will be made to complete this blog, my current poem and see to it that this year ends with great finale to end this year while heading into next year in good momentum. Note to self: I’ve got to continue to self regulate expectations and fears, keep my mind open to new ideas, fully enjoy the summer experience and work on each project little by little to have it pay dividends later down the road.

Out from the darkness once again, (Yes!!!!!!)
