For The Interested - FTI #364: Back in 2015...

I used to be uncomfortable sharing my ideas.

Just found this note I wrote to myself on Dec. 1, 2015.

I hope it helps you see you're not the only one who struggles to put yourself out there.

It's a journey, but you can get there.

Life on the other side is pretty cool.

Now, on to this week's ideas...

The Starting Five

1. How The Most Generous Creator I Know Operates​

Including how he built his audience, became the center of an active and supportive community, and figured out what products to create.

I was interviewed on the Become A Writer Today podcast and shared my thoughts on how best to provide value to an audience, leverage social media, and more.
