Turning writing into a full-time thing

I have decided to turn my writing into a full-time thing. I am going to be on my sites more and blogging a lot more too. I am tired of sitting around being told that I am not doing anything or contributing which is such a bold lie. I am doing this for me personally because I would like to go places and get myself a few things or get a pedicure if I want one without walking by the spa. You know I have never had a full spa treatment which is something I would love to experience. I live with Chronic migraines every day and I am in the house doing nothing but taking care of everyone else and not myself, so it is time for me to think about me that's all. My boys are getting to where they are doing their own thing and I take them to school and stuff so when they are good I am free to do what I want. I am going to spend my days here on mylot and a few other places because I also write for a mom site and I submit articles for them. I am at like three bucks here and I am very happy about that. I will be adding more of the Molly James Journal which is the last part that I will be writing when it comes to this series because I am ready to do something new. My next story will be a little different not a diary written one. Thank you all for reading and I am adding the next section of Molly James tonight or tomorrow.

You endure migraines? I have been having more of something in the last year- ibuprofen does a good job of ridding me of the head pain but not the other stuff. Like not seeing right and exhaustion and weakness and vertigo. The weird vision and need to get away from the light drives me nuts.

I take prescriptions over the counter does nothing for me. I have had migraines for the past 6 years now.

@Keyia120 @sallypup Have you guys tried the daith piercing for migraines? I know many people who swear that it works and someone said that it's like a balloon deflating in your head, immediate relief as soon as they pierce it.

@Angelee_27 That sounds like medieval torture!! I run far away when someone puts a needle near me.

It's always nice when you can turn a passion into work. Good luck! I hope you're able to have a lot of success.

You should check out Fiverr, if you are good at writing and passionate you would do great there! Get $5+ per article, blog post, etc. There are more things you can do there too, no just writing. Check out what others are offering and think about what you can do there. It's good money once you get the hang of it and orders start coming in.

@Keyia120 I am just now getting back into selling on Fiverr. It takes a little while to get started, but once you get your first few orders they usually keep coming in fairly steadily.

Yes, I have an account and need to use it more. I just been working on my books and doing some hub page articles. I do work for a site as well right now too. I am really trying to get my name out there and work from home especially since I am a military spouse.

I know. Doesn't mean I can't come here and read and post. I love reading everyone else stuff and posting here gives me something to do while I am working on my book.It is fun here so I will be here more often than I usually am. Yeah, I understand what you mean and I know I usually get comments and stuff though. I am not looking to make a lot here ya know..
