1. How did you get started in your business? When my daughter was two years old I got a computer and started designing business cards, flyers, etc for my church. This turned into a desktop publishing business. Pretty soon I was doing resumes and reports in addition to desktop publishing. A few year later and a degree in English, I decided to write and edit for others then I started writing from my life experiences.
2. What motivates you to keep going when all you want to say is, “Calgon, take me away!” Being a good example for my kids, especially for my daughter. Also, the desire to accelerate my debt payoff is an excellent motivator
