As you know, I’ve been recovering from a two-month ordeal of having been environmentally poisoned. Doing the requisite rest everyone tells me to do drives me crazy – seems like it makes the healing take longer than I’d like. I know, I know, don’t push the damn river! So yesterday I thought I’d give myself […]

What Inspires You?
I was taught that “great artists wait for inspiration to come to them, and then they create.” So obviously, if I wanted to become a great artist, I needed to wait for inspiration to come. Well that’s just total BS. Smart me! I didn’t believe it. Life moves faster than that. And I don’t wait […]

You can also sell your worksheets, class exercises, reading guides, and other helpful educational resources! ARE YOU A TEACHER/INSTRUCTOR/PROFESSOR?

Get Your Audience Settled, whether Live o...

What I’m about to show you works for in-person, online, and zoom events. The first thing I do is bang on my podium. Or […]

These explanations of file types will help you understand what kinds of files to use for your documents, print books, ebooks or websites.

The PAINFUL WAY I LEARNED ABOUT MONEY, Pa...
I guarantee you that if you do not, they will hang around and expect you to do and pay for everything for them — just like you have their whole lives! Because my parents were so tight-lipped about money, I had no idea the sacrifices they made for all of us. No. Idea. My three […]
SHE’S NOT THERE!
You’re writing a book! That’s great! You’re going to help people, entertain them, introduce them to something new and/or innovative, or even change the world with your ideas. Let’s say you’re a therapist or health or emotions specialist, and you want to help a person get past unwanted memories of trauma. You’ve gone to school, […]
CRUNCHY YOGA & AUDIO BOOKS!
Recently I’ve been creating a 1-2-3 systems webinar for teaching authors how to make their own audio books. Why audio books, you ask? Because although it’s easy to publish kindle books on amazon, you can get your audio books onto 47 other platforms! Imagine you have one book, and you put it for sale on […]
HOT DOG!
In January, I enrolled in a course to learn how to create sellable surface pattern designs. I’m intending to find out how to create designs I can sell and license to individuals and companies for reproduction on fabric, wallpaper, wrapping paper, and you name it, all kinds of products. I started out trying floral designs, […]
THE REAL USE OF DEPRESSION
Depression is a sneaky bastard. I have experienced it all my life, and because I didn’t know how to handle it, I was even suicidal for years … until 20 years ago when I found EFT, the Emotional Freedom Techniques (in case you’re wondering, find out about it here). As I began to use EFT, […]
Time to Raise Your Prices!
Last weekend, I went down to the local art center where about 50 artists run a coop gallery so I could sign up for the Open Studios Art Tour. I was pleased to see some pretty good work there. And surprised at one painting in particular. This painting was about 11″ x 14″ – good […]
Happy 2017!!!
How many years have you set great goals for the new year…and ended up not doing them – and then feeling bad about it? Ugh! Me too. And not only that, but on top of not doing what I said I’d do, I felt bad about it, and then felt bad about feeling bad! How […]
Change Your Mind! with EFT: the Basics –
I’ve gone over and revised my Signature EFT book, Change Your Mind with EFT, the Basics. When I revised it, I was frankly amazed at how good it is! I expected to have to change and update a whole lot of stuff in it, but all I did was rewrite a few sentences and reformat […]
“She Betrayed Me!”
My friend “Benji,” a coloring book artist, told me that, after discussing with her friend an idea that she was working on, that same friend went off and created and published the very same kind of work. “What really bugged me was not just that she stole my idea, but that she posted it as […]
Do You Allow Your Inner Guidance?
Have you ever wanted to keep doing something you love, but it just seemed like something was in the way? I’ve felt like that. I couldn’t figure out what what to do. Finally, I made a very simple, very powerful decision: that I’d let my intuition and connection to Spirit guide me more than ever. […]
Did You Get Your FREE Book yet?
The Real Money Secrets is a book I created several years ago as a spoof on all the weird, funny and wacky ways people strive to get more money. I decided to update and republish it because, at the very least, it was make you laugh, helping you make your day a little lighter. And […]
Wish You Had Someone Who’d Listen to You
That’s me. I’ll absolutely do that for you! I’m really good at it, because I really care about you and want you to succeed – whatever that personally means for you. And I have this amazing (even to me!) knack of being able to see how you can do things better in your life, emotions, […]
I’m Back! Retiring Ain’t All It’s Cracked
Many years ago, my dad, who was a sought-after executive recruiter in New York City, retired at the age of 65. (Yup, he really did wear bow-ties – and tied them himself – none of those cheater clip on things!) At first, he loved all that time on his hands! He spent hours in his […]
“Bad Request” Message
DO YOU EVER GET THIS? Sometimes when I click on a page link or a pay link, I get the message below. Very annoying, and for a long time I had no idea what to do about it! Then I found out: first, highlight and copy the link. Then, go up to FILE, click on […]
I Love Low-Key Marketing!
I’m not a hypester or brash self-promo kind of person, so pushing my work has always been hard for me. I mention my latest article HERE because, yes, of course I want you to go see my artwork and read the article…. AND, because it’s a great example of very low-key marketing. Thai Nguyen, one […]
The Pleiadian Protocol to Reduce Excess B...
Have you ever had a long spell of feeling really great, and then, completely out of the blue, one day you wake up almost in panic, or extreme distress? That’s what happened to me last week, with a very deeply felt personal worry. Even tapping only went so far to get me any relief. Just […]

Does YOUR Website Reflect Your Brand and ...
Does YOUR Website Reflect Your Brand and Your Personality? I’m really tired of hyped-up programs telling you how to build a website that cost you thousands. It just isn’t necessary. So I’m always on the lookout for people who do good honest work for way less than the norm. I found Pamela Wilson a couple […]
DO Something!
Lately I’ve been cruising Facebook a bunch. Probably too much. I get hooked by the posts on what’s happening out there in the world. Many of them are really upsetting to me – reports of heinous things people do to each other, and what we, human kind – or rather, humans-not-so-kind – are doing to […]
What to Do When You Feel Like, “I Just Ca
I received a note from someone today who said she felt torn between doing this and that and couldn’t make up her mind, and it was starting to make her feel crazy. Can you relate? I sure can! It’s never a question of WHAT to do, it’s always a question of WHEN. A few years […]
Should Artists Have Just A Website, or Ju...
Someone asked on FB if she should have a website or a FB biz page for her art. Someone said to set up a print site as well (FAA) as her site or FB. This is what I answered: I sell pretty steadily from FineArtAmerica.com (FAA). But really, you asked about whether to have a […]
How to Increase Your Confidence
If you think you have too little money and too much overwhelm, you’ll probably want to read this!! (If you don’t experience that, maybe someone you know might, and this could help them!) Lately, I’ve been meditating. A LOT. Because I find that, when I connect, I see beauty, kindness, generosity and so much love […]
What Would You Have to Believe….
I heard this question from someone and thought it was brilliant: “What would you have to believe about yourself in order to feel successful?” For me, it first brought up the question of what success meant to me. I had to define it in my own terms in order to have a relevant answer. And […]
