The time has come to start working out my future. I have been driving for ride-share companies such as Lyft and Uber. This work has brought in side income. Now is the time to focus on my career. I am a writer and editor. Having this condition has taken time away from creating and maintaining a proper portfolio. I have started an eBook but have only completed the first couple of chapters. My health has improved since the surgery. I have the usual pains, but the lung is no longer collapsing. Since the lung failure I wrote an article for
The Mighty and to my surprise it was selected for publication.

There were few or no editorial changes made to my article from what I could find. It did have a title change. I was pleased with this result.
I decided it was time to put my hard work towards an education to work for me. I opened a business for proofreading, editing, and peer review. I work on essays, résumés, book reports, emails, transcription, and more. I do hope this new job keeps me busy. My mind is always racing but by body can't keep up. I could be a writer, but my interest is in editing. It is a language by itself. My new website is available to view:

I plan to be extremely careful with all future blog posts since potential clients could now view my work. I am excited to begin.
