I have a plan [I know. It scares me too!]

Okay, so evaluating the past few years for the good and bad of what's worked, what was fun, and what pays the bills in a way that brings me happiness brought me to this path:

I want to write the books. Okay how does one go about establishing themself as an "authority" on a topic? Well, experience is a big one and with my topics I think I am pretty qualified. Authors need readers. I have spent the past year spreading my blogs across the Net on various social networking sites. I already have thousands of readers from all over the world. I've branded myself pretty well too.

I also want to do retreats when I get moved to the farm. Video and live net shows will support me if I set this all up right while also give my 'fanbase' a constant product to select from between sessions and retreats. If I do now while I have the small start up money then it can become a full time gig for me right now.

For this to be the most profitable and effortless for me as possible, I need certain things:

A much better site. A members paysite. With some free sections which are supported by advertising. Some pay areas with various perks. I already have a huge list of what I want to provide in each and won't bore you all with the details just yet. But you can bet I will blog my brainstorms and ask opinions.

A better video recording device. My cam is good but I want a camera like the one Danielle used when we knew each other. She could record and do a very clear large image send on cam shows too. Plus it had a remote. I am going to get Vinnie to help me shop around for what I can get with the best options and best price. He's good at that.

Lighting is easy. A lot of what I want to shoot is indoor and controllable. When we move the whole show out to the woods, I will have to make those purchases. That's about two years.

Can do, if I work this right.

I am still going to see clients. But man am I going to be picky. More than anything I am probably going to be more visable on niteflirt. I need to rebuild that angle of my fanbase. I kinda miss those little freaks too. That requires me doing another bit of web authoring...basic shit though...That's where I am going to start...

Oh and contacting Darrell about Messygirl shoots...Great exposure, fun work environment, good pay and an excuse to get my girlies some work while we giggle and splosh around in the food!!

To say the least my outlook is VERY up...Spring mania...and no Sinfest to have to work on...No vanilla job...Just me working on my businesses...Finally. M
