Write Till It's Right
It is about time I build a new tolerance for sitting at the computer since I still cannot work, I'm not allowed to start physical therapy just yet and blogging is something I will need to get used to. I have realized that affiliate marketing is not my cup of tea right now. The websites I created didn't work out or didn't feel right, I don't know, but I suppose I tried too much too quickly. I have, however, a decent idea for those websites. I am just going to write, get comfortable with it and build confidence. My Scouting site can slowly evolve into something else and I'll have to think on the other one. I may even delete it and wait before I attempt another one. I don't really need it as it currently serves no purpose that won't be fulfilled with my blogging on this site which is fine by me.
I started writing a book, which is something I've wanted to do for years but lacked the confidence. My brother told me to just do it and not worry if it's good or not, just start already! So I have and it feels strange but I really want to do this. It is a new direction but I've changed it so many times I am at peace with it. So, while I continue to recuperate, I will practice here and I hope you guys don't mind. I'll need the practice so I can be ready when its time to launch my new website, which, in case you haven't guessed, will be centered around my writing ventures, as well as, other author's works. I'll add affiliate stuff later. Oh, did I mention my brother is a publisher? That is something in my favor because I know people can publish for free on Amazon but I also get the benefit of his experience, which I will need in abundance.
My entries are going to be random and possibly out in left field somewhere but I am grateful for the many sets of eyes, even if its only four, that will read them and leave their input because I'll likely need that too. I hope to provide little snippets of what I write but I assume I'll have to put those on my website and not on my WA page. So, thank you in advance for your tolerance and allowing me to stretch my fingers once again!
Slow is better than no! Thank you!

First things first, hello, I'm Besjon ( Bes ) nice to make your acquaintance. If thers's one piece of advice you may permit me to give you is to forget the "perfect" in everything you do. We're living in a society of SHOW IT ALL where everything has to be perfect or just seem so. That is a terrible message sent to all future entrepreneurs of any kind because it rises the level of percieved succes at impossible high levels which, in turn, creates frustration and lack of confidence. ALL people who have ever had great succes, who have attained quasi perfection in their respective fields have actually started quite small and are surely the kind of people who have made the most mistakes... THAT is the only truth. If you make mistakes andnare NOT perfect, it can only mean that you're on the right way... Keep making those mistakes and please, learn from them. It should all fall into place some day in the near future. Patience. Cheers!
Hi. I wanted to wish you all the best with your writing endeavours. It's truly a great feeling to get something published that you've written. I currently have one book on Amazon and am taking the NaNoWriMo challenge for the month of November. I plan to come out of that with a book ready for editing.
I, too, have a writer's website and will be promoting writing and doing author interviews. I also plan to review some writing programs, ones that I personally use. Give me a holler via PM if you ever want someone to review your website once you're ready. Take care.
Best of luck in your new direction.
