hi bluesky folks 💚

I'm Goldie - a speaker, writer, creative and sea monkey rancher.

Most days you'll find me working or writing a book or comics (my first book is out in Fall of 2025 "Personal Branding for Introverts") or at a coffee shop having a matcha latte.

Tell me what your heart knows 💚
A gentle reminder to shop small on black friday! 🖤💚

If you're looking for a cozy read that will help your career move forward, check out my debut book, Personal Branding for Introverts on Bookshop!

Here I am with a custom totebag I designed!!
Order my book here: bookshop.org/a/116279/978...

BAD BOOK ADVICE* I got in the last 3 months from industry folks:

☔️ don't pre-sell until 30 days before release
☔️ don't tell people you'll have a book released the year before
☔️ don't reach out to other authors
☔️ don't listen to advice on the internet
☔️ don't try new things with social media

shout out to the negative review of my book
where they started to read and then discovered

1 chapter in

that it focuses on "Personal Branding"
and they didn't want that

A bunch of folks y e l l e d at me that my book cover isn't good 🥹

I hope it's an INTROVERT-friendly, soothing, simple & easy-to-spot cover ~ would you pick up my debut book?

And got turned down or no response by a few that I love!

But I’m thankful for the shops that said YES or maybe later 💚📗 I’d love to have 1-2 more events for my first book, so fingers crossed it happens for me!!

Pls support by buying indie here: bookshop.org/a/116279/978...

I design or pay a human designer/editor to
make all of my book graphics and videos 💚

So sometimes it takes me a while to create content
while I'm traveling, speaking, working and recovering

I know I should outsource more but...

I LOVE THE CREATIVE PART!!! 🥹😊
