Let’s play a game: Pretend it’s November 16, 2020 — exactly one year from now. What’s one thing you’ve idea you put on the backburner this year that you want to create in the next 365 days? Reply to this email and let me know (after you tell me yours, I’ll respond to with mine).
Then think of the number-one question you’d ask someone who spends their work and life researching, reporting and writing about how to get noticed and paid with your knowledge, craft, imagination and heart. Because next Wed Nov 20 from 10 a.m.–12 p.m., I’ll be answering your questions on all things creativity (and giving away a 30-day subscription to my new business newsletter to a lucky winner too!).
The Q&A is one of four in a series designed to prep you and your creative business or side project for a powerful 2020. I can’t wait to see what you ask. Post your question to the thread now.
