When initially planning my LLC’s website, I wanted to explain the services in a list of frequently asked questions. I thought of cool ways to design it like a colorful accordion. But I also thought “it’s been done”. That’s boring. Dated. Boring and dated are the opposite of what I want the business to achieve.…

Last night, I dreamed that my kids’ mom and I were getting along. I’m going to call it foreshadowing. We can’t possibly be enemies forever. I was in some kind of school setting, and there were some field exercises. I was able to fly, but I didn’t because I didn’t leave. I didn’t want to…

One day, I’d like to go on a game show where you earn points by guessing the name of a tv show when the theme music is played.

I’m reading a really good book. I’d been reading one fiction and one nonfiction simultaneously. But I’m giving this title my full attention. Making the best use of time is not in my wheelhouse. I had The 4 Hour Work Week a few months before I began reading. After I started the audiobook on Audible,…

Many posts on MikeWriting.com are made with a lot of love. I wonder sometimes if I’m wasting that level of effort that could be being put into writing book. Maybe wasting isn’t the best term. I wonder if I should be redirecting that level of attention into book content. But then I think that each…

I have a little more motivation to tighten my blog post draft process because of Podcasting Blogger. It will be my third live blog. I’m taking a really, really long time to draft the third and final piece of the Defining Success Series for Mike Writing. I think three weeks have passed since part two.…

I got an invitation to write a guest post on a friend’s new blog. It’s my first invitation to guest write. Feels pretty damn good. I’m looking forward to dive in. Because of course I accepted. This is the kind of thing that lets audiences cross paths. I already have ideas. First, I plan to…

It was fun to be busy today. I’m geeked about my new subscribers for Podcasting Blogger. I do feel a little bad for not having freebies queued up for new subscribers. But I took the steam and dedicated this weekend to organize my notes and get some freebies ready to fire off. I’m thinking I’ll…

Dad is writing a book. He grew up in Alabama in a home that raised him and 9 siblings. He was born in 1959. He’s black. I’ve been privileged to hear some of the stories from my dad, aunts, uncles, and grandparents about the 60s and 70s. I’ve read articles. I’ve watched documentaries, demonstration footage,…

I never want Christmas music to end. Maybe Christmas songs were playing in the hospital when I was born. It was Dec 11, so I could see that. Also, it was the 80s, and no one was as “weird” about Christmas. I saw an interview from a news channel with a man and woman debating…

I’m excited about doors opening. I got a chance to network with an entrepreneur in Canada. And even getting set up for the courtesy consult was a little bit nerve-racking. It was like ‘what questions do I ask?’. How do I keep from geeking out and being super technical about their business? I put myself…
