Ideas

This is a list of all my published writing online.

Over 10+ years, I’ve written 100+ posts and published 90K+ words on this site!

I use this outline style to make my writing easier to read.

Highlights, bolds, · bullets, and underlines help us get to the point faster.

I’m now writing my first book: Positive Politics!

I’m writing this book to inspire more people to take on these challenges and make the world better!

If any of these ideas spark your interest, please DM or email me and let’s talk!
