Default Getting started + my stats.

Here's my info.

I'm 29.

I work for the city part time, I've been with them for almost 11 yrs. I used to work full time, but downgraded to go to school full time.

I'm a freelance special effects makeup artist for the film industry.

The sucky part of being "freelance" is that you're out of work most of the time. The city day gig is what sustains me.

It also doesn't help that I have some credit card debt from my younger years.


Now is where I have to dig and come up with my muse.

At this point in time, I'm not able to use a VA to delegate tasks, because I have to actually be at my day job and serve the public.

As far as the FX gigs, well those, when they come along require me to be on set or at the shop fabricating.


I'm digging what I'm hearing about e-books and such...

My whole thing is... if I wrote an e-book on fx makeup, what's to keep people from just looking it up online for free? That's would I do. I also don't have a "world's greatest" fx artist title. Who would buy from someone they've never heard of.


Okay, I'm over analyizing.
