I don’t really know

I have wandered to one thing or another my entire life.

Some of the things I have tried have been successful, some haven’t but I always come back to writing.

I have never tried anything bigger than posting on this site because after graduating college with a journalism degree I was a single mom of three. I went back to college and finished my degree when I was in my 30’s

Every interview I went to they asked about me, and I would tell them the truth. I was a single mom. Every interview I didn’t get hired. At that time, I was asking what it was that made them decide not to hire me, 9 times out of 10, they said it was because they were worried, I wouldn’t be able to make it to work or to interviews for stories because of my children.

So it soured my view on the journalism jobs that were out there, and I decided to go another way with my career.

Now, I am just trying to build my following here and I am thinking up a podcast type show, I don’t know what it will be yet. I am still thinking.

How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success?
