On the last day of February this year, I pushed “publish” on my very first, very simple website. I didn’t plan to go live on a leap day, but life happened. In the end, it was fitting since I was jumping into entrepreneurship.
After years of doing entrepreneurial things and thinking about the type of business I should own, followed by months of thinking and planning to turn my free writing services into a business, I was excited to be officially in business. My calendar was filling up with prospects, pitches, and workshop opportunities. And now I had a website!
You know what happened next. Two or three weeks after the site went public, New York City went “on pause.” So did my plans for a big launch in 2020.
