AI is ruining my career and I’m not even mad about it

Posted on February 27, 2024 By Latte Lindsay

It’s been over 10 years since I made the decision to become a freelance copywriter. In fairness, it started off with blogging, the freelancing came later. Since then, I have created a small space for myself in the writing community. Sure, I’m not raking in the big bucks, but it is enough that I am not counting the pennies down the back at the sofa at the end of the month. That was true until recently as the effects of AI on the writing community have started to ripple out.

If I Won The Lottery…..

Posted on August 23, 2023August 22, 2023 By Latte Lindsay

There is a game that I like to play with my husband called “if I won the lottery”, and it is exactly what it sounds like. We plot how we would spend the millions that would suddenly appear in our bank account. But would it answer all of our problems?

Posted on July 19, 2023 By Latte Lindsay

If you look in one corner of my living room, you will see a pile of crafting stuff that goes unused. For the moment, it is collecting dust while I collect more hobbies. And if anyone asks about it, my answer is simple, hobby hoarding is a hobby.

Failure is something we all have to deal with from time to time. As much as we want to be successful, the best laid plans can be derailed. However, if there is one thing I have learned, it is that you have to pass failure in order to be successful and that it’s ok to fail.

The Art of Blogging is Dead

Posted on June 7, 2023June 5, 2023 By Latte Lindsay

Having a blog is a common occurrence these days, and that is not a bad thing. However, the industry has changed so much I have started to ask myself, is the art of blogging dead? And is there any point of having a blog if you aren’t making a ton of cash?

Posted on By Latte Lindsay

When you listen to the rich and famous in interviews you will hear them throw the words “my philosophy” about from time to time. But what do they mean by that? Is it their secret to their success?

Let me explain….

Be your own truth

Posted on By Latte Lindsay

When I had this post in my mind I was going to start it differently until I saw a news piece on Jerome Jarre. Jerome is a Vine video star who has over 4 million subscribers on his channel. This level of interest in him has got the attention of some big players in the advertising industry and recently he was offered 1 million dollars to advertise on his channel but he had to stay in New York for one year. He told them to stick it. Turning down a million is a big deal no matter who you are, and you all probably think he is crazy but I agree with his reasons.

Am I basic?

Posted on By Latte Lindsay

There is a term being thrown about at the minute, maybe you have heard of it. The concept of the “Basic Bitch” is a newish thing to grace my attention mainly because someone called me it. Having never heard of the term I wasn’t sure if it was an insult or not. When I asked my friend what she meant, she just laughed. Apparently, asking if you are basic is the most basic thing you can do.
