    In my free time, I sometimes write poetry and post it anonymously online. My primary job is commonly referred to as "content marketing." I write things for businesses to post online to keep their audiences engaged. It's usually blogs and websites, but I also do ad copy, transcripts, press releases, ebooks, case studies, emails, and other odds and ends. I write for virtually every industry and am usually a ghost writer.

    I did not know that JA. Sounds to me like a VERY interesting way to spend your time and earn a living.  Variety is definitely spicy and it seems you have a lot of that. Thank you for your reply and Happy Sunday! :)

  • I try writing some. I have a friend who is an author. He inspired me to try my hand at it. One of his novels is set in 1933 in San Francisco's Chinatown. He illustrated it, and the drawings show authentic clothing, cars, watches and guns from 1933. He did much research and found collections of photographs made of San Francisco in 1933 when construction began of he Golden Gate Bridge. I read his novel, and he said he did a series with two novels set in 1933, and one each in 1926, 1914, 1616, 898 and 250 AD. I tried writing a sequel to his 1933 novel. I first did a short story. I have added to it with his help. He offered to illustrate it and make the covers for me. Maybe I will appear in it. He made a few drawings of me for his history of clothing. The first one shows me in a 2014 bikini. He can draw me in 1933 clothing too.
