Have you ever considered writing an e-book or guest authoring on other sites?
I have a blog centered on the same subjects you discuss and would really like to have you share
some stories/information. I know my visitors would value
your work. If you’re even remotely interested, feel free to send me an e mail.
Very good blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring
writers? I’m hoping to start my own blog soon but
I’m a little lost on everything. Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid
option? There are so many choices out there that I’m totally confused ..
Any tips? Many thanks!
