OK this is going to be a long one so sit back and listen to some music :)
I wanted to clear a few things up. You see, I have been doing this for almost 3 years now, I have taken breaks but for the most part, I have been around. I've had some good times, had a few bad times, but all in all, it's been a good hobby. I have met some really cool people and made some great friends all in all. I did have a rough spot for a bit there. About a year and a half ago, somethings happened to cause me to not work as much. One was a good thing, I started working on my music more, the other wasn't so good, and so I went UTR for a bit. I would come to the surface every so often, but for the most part, I haven't been nearly as visible or active since August of 2007.
How I got started.... well that's a long old story I don't wanna dwell on too much but I was recovering from a reeeaaaaaaaally nasty accident and had difficulty staying at my desk upon returning to work. So this was SUPPOSED to be temporary lol. OK so I enjoyed it a little more than I thought I would. I had done this before, but it wasn't nearly as much fun. But then, working for an agency wasn't the same. It was easier in that I didn't have to worry about advertising or screening, but I still had the right to turn down the call. Wasn't the same though lol. I did that for 2 years off and on up in Seattle in the 90's, while I held down a full time job. I just took calls a couple times a week, and I didn't always get work those 2 days I did call in, so it wasn't much.
I have been independent this time and I have seen things differently than I did before. I have always been an open and friendly person, probably more trusting than I should have been (yes I have learned some lessons) but I still tend to believe that if you don't give at least some measure of trust, you just might be closing the door to a good oportunity. So I came into this thinking I would meet some really cool people and make some girl friends in the industry................. wow was I mistaken lol. See...... now I knew women could be vicious, I grew up around one of the most vicious one's on this planet, but wow, I had no idea just how dirty it can get when women are competing for $ AND attention. I had given my trust to several in the beginning that in hind sight, I probably shouldn't have. But it was all part of figuring out how this game works right?
Anyway, I became a member of several boards, got to know some of the people, unfortunately gained a few haters............ it's life lol. They will look for every oportunity they can to defame someone just for the fun of it won't they? ha ha ha. I had a blog that I was writing one time, a friend of mine was writing a book and wanted some material for it. IT was good stuff wasn't it? For those that read it, they took it how they wanted to, face value. Oh well, it's life right? lol Anyway, all the drama and BS aside, all the enemies who swear this or that, does it really matter now? Can you look back now and see how stupid it was? Can you look back now and see where you went wrong? Probably not though, because you dont' care do you?
I write this because I see where the activity on my site is coming from, I know the eyes that are reading and where it is probably getting posted. More drama? Can you make a mountain out of an ant hill?
I actually enjoy providing and I am DAMM good at it :) Not much anyone on some regional board is gonna be able to do to change that. But I will say this....
