A geek who's married to a geek and geeks out on more than she should. The best my hair will ever look. Don’t ask me how much this cost. I, Williesha Morris, am a complicated, geeky sort of chick who seems to thrive on worry and anxiety. I’m hoping these posts resonate with folks like me: who either suffer from anxiety or depression, have had difficult childhoods, or who just want to vent about growing old. And I’m working on a book about how the challenges entrepreneurs with anxiety. June 12, 2015. 8230;...

https://rubberduckycopywriter.com/2015/05/29/holy-crap-its-been-three-years-already
One writer's tales of life as a writer. Sometimes, I'm helpful. Holy crap, it’s been three years already? May 29, 2015. As of June 1, Rubber Ducky Copywriter is three years old. I was planning on a big party during which my rubber ducks and I celebrate with cupcakes and champagne, but that has to wait; I have to go to a funeral instead. But this may be the longest I’ve ever stuck with one project. Over these three years, I’ve learned more than I did over the first year. I take a pretty relaxed approach t...

One writer's tales of life as a writer. Sometimes, I'm helpful. The secret to inspiration and the danger of overthinking. July 27, 2015. Happiness is when your boss’s boss’s boss asks you what inspires you and you have no answer. I experienced this joy a couple of weeks ago. It went like this. So what inspires you? Oh crap. Why don’t I know? I should know. Why is he so bald? Why am I thinking about that? I should say something smart. Oh God, what if I blurt out something about his bald head? She’s done a...

Are you being responsible with your writing dreams? | Rubber Ducky Copywriter
https://rubberduckycopywriter.com/2015/07/20/are-you-being-responsible-with-your-writing-dreams
One writer's tales of life as a writer. Sometimes, I'm helpful. Are you being responsible with your writing dreams? July 20, 2015. In my last post. I shared how a fellow writer managed to get down almost 36,000 words despite him having a family, a toddler and mushrooms growing in his basement. And I asked What’s my excuse? Truth is, I don’t have one. I just suck at setting boundaries with myself. When I’ve blocked off time to work on my writing, my process goes something like this:. Put on comfy clothes.

Should You Write a Free Sample to Get a Freelance Gig?
http://www.makealivingwriting.com/write-a-free-sample-get-freelance-gig
Darr; Skip to Main Content. Should You Write a Free Sample to Get a Freelance Gig? I hate writing tests. I’ve been professionally writing since 2009. Since then, I’ve taken a half-dozen or so tests for various gigs, providing a sample of my writing and never landed the job. Even worse, after every failed attempt, I’ve been left with a bitter taste in my mouth, griping about the wasted time. I did have a little copywriting. To my surprise, I heard back within a matter of hours. And that’s when I was h...

What a fellow writer and better novelist just taught me | Rubber Ducky Copywriter
https://rubberduckycopywriter.com/2015/07/08/what-a-fellow-writer-and-better-novelist-just-taught-me
One writer's tales of life as a writer. Sometimes, I'm helpful. What a fellow writer and better novelist just taught me. July 8, 2015. Last week a fellow copywriter accidentally sent me his first draft of his work in progress. Note to those of you who are new to Apple Air Drop: make sure you know where you’re sending your stuff. And don’t send sensitive materials if you’re practicing.). Reading his work was a wake-up call for me. In many ways. First, he had almost 36,000 words down. Then, once he finally...
