Sticky Notes - Discontinued.

THIS IS SUCH A BUMMER, REALLY. 

THE TL;DR VERSION...

Freelancing your way to $100k will be discontinued on Monday, September 12th. While everyone who has purchased this guide will have access to it forever –– or at least until I die and my snotty-nosed nephews forget to renew my Squarespace subscription –– it will no longer be available for purchase. The good news is that between now and Monday, I'm giving everyone 25% off with coupon code "bummer" at checkout. 

THE LONG-WINDED VERSION...


Honey Copy is changing. Into what exactly? I don't yet know. What I do know is that "change" can't happen unless you make room for it (I read that scrawled on a dilapidated scroll in a flea market somewhere).

That's why I'm kicking 
Freelancing your way to $100k to the curb.

Not because I don't love her... Not because we haven't had some damn good times together... Not because she doesn't still make my toes curl...

I'm kicking her to the curb because I need to light a damn fire under my ass to create something new and exciting! Like a fucking hoverboard or something. 

Jokes aside. Don't worry –– I hate when writers say this because readers never really worry about anything writers have to say unless it involves a thriller –– I don't think this will be the last time I teach folks how to build a freelance business.

It will just be the last time I teach freelancing in this particular format. 

I've found a lot of success and fulfillment teaching my creative writing classes through email so, hell, perhaps this will be the future rendition of
Freelancing your way to $100k. I don't know. It's too soon to tell. 

Before I sign off of here and go eat a copious amount of green curry and basil chicken, let's talk real quick about who 
Freelancing your way to $100k isn't for... 

It's not for lazy people. While this guide takes less than an hour to get through. It requires 10 hours of sweat equity each week to deliver anything that looks remotely like money in your pocket.

It's not for NFTers. As much as I wish this guide promised miracles, it doesn't. If you believe in getting filthy fucking rich off miracles and prayers, go Tweet about NFTs (says the guy who will probably, eventually, get into NFTs).

It's not for Alpacas. As intelligent as those cute fluffy bastards are, I have yet to figure out an effective way to educate Alpacas on the principles of freelancing without getting spat on. They're terribly stubborn students. 

Alright, I have nothing left to say... save for this...

Thank you to everyone who allows me to write for a living and, more so, push the boundaries of what it means to be a writer in this day of age.

As I continue to grow, it will mean stepping into new shapes and stepping out of old ones –– like 
Freelancing your way to $100k –– but please know that as I take these steps, it doesn't at all mean I'm ashamed of my past shapes. 

But, I digress.

Cheers, 

Cole.
