I hate to be THAT boyfriend, but...


Hey Reader,

I usually share tips about writing and making money online.

Today, though, I want to give a special shoutout to my girlfriend.

Two years ago, on our first virtual date, Ali mentioned she was working on her first fiction book. She knew the road to being traditionally published would be long, and she didn’t know where it would lead.

And she finally got to share her book with the world last week!

I’ve seen firsthand her dedication, love, and passion for this project, and I’m proud of how far she’s come. Ali’s book has been 7 years in the making, and I was so happy I could be in New York to celebrate this special moment with her.

So I hate to be THAT boyfriend, but... keep being you, Ali, and I hope people love your book as much as I do.

Here’s to cheering for those you love, and never forget to keep pushing towards your dreams.

Wonderful things can happen!

And if you want to buy a copy on Amazon, here's a link :)

Scott

So much so, I wrote a LinkedIn post about how I landed the opportunity: At the end of the post, I thanked Thom — the person I work...

Hey Reader, I'm sorry I ghosted you. Lots of stuff has happened, so I took a break from being online. But I didn't tell you the full story. So here it is: My mum was with her partner, Rich, for 20 years. He was a wonderful man, and I considered him my dad. But a call from my mum soon changed that. "We've got some bad news, I'm afraid. Rich has been diagnosed with lung cancer. And he has brain tumours." It felt like déjà vu. My mum was diagnosed with ovarian cancer 18 months ago. (She's all...

Read time: 3 mins 📢 Spoiler alert: I have an important update at the end of this email... Hey Reader, I'll be honest; I'm not sure about the freelancing course I put out last week. It was an experiment. I wanted to see: What the unsubscribe rate would be How it would feel to put it out there Whether anyone would book a call It's a mixed bag on all these things, and I felt a little dirty putting the course out there. Why? I copied the style from another creator and it didn't really vibe with...
