Bear with me today, and I fully intended to break out of my nature mode with my next post. However, life has gotten in the way and I wasn’t able to carve enough time out to give proper justice for what I’m planning on sharing with you.
So I’m thinking along with this lovely Orangutan from the Washington National Zoo. Sometimes great creative work requires lots of thinking before action.
I’ve been taking a class this past month with Rob Sheppard through Betterphoto.com which in itself is absolutely amazing ! The world wide web brings his incredible expertise in the photography and publishing world right to my doorstep. It is my hopes that more of my works will be published through more outlets, and even better hopes that I’ll be paid for it.
Rob’s coaching is wonderful, just enough coaching with some tough love and appropriate direction that is desperately needed. This upcoming year, I’ll share with you my experiences as a budding travel and freelance writer. Here’s hoping I’ve got the stuff to make it.
