It's my Skool community's 2 year anniversary!

Most hustles don’t die from lack of talent. They die from inconsistency. The habit that changes everything? Publishing something small, every single day. Not perfect. Not polished. Not “strategic.” Just consistent. You don’t need to be better. You need to be there.

10 days until my wife's birthday. 11 days until Christmas. That means about 9 days until I stop shopping for both!

I've been in and out of arena's all day. I have a total of 5 today! Thankfully my phone helps me stay productive while I'm waiting for kids to get ready, the zamboni is on the ice, and during warmups.

What's everyone up to on this lovely side hustle Sunday?

Can you write, edit, and publish a book from your phone? Between cars, lines, and hockey arenas, most of my creative time lives in small pockets. In 2026, I’m attempting to publish a book using only my phone. Would you try this, or does it sound insane?

Yes It's great too!

Step #1 to earning on Amazon KDP is publishing.

Double down on what works. Cut out what doesn't. Repeat over & over!

Amazon is the top place for gifts (Xmas and others), so always make sure your books (or merch) are targeted accordingly.

You don't hate writing, You hate what you're writing about.

What's the best way to find clients? Wrong answers only!

Do you have a Gumroad ebook/course? Take it, and add some sections and pages for people to take notes or answer questions. Upload to Amazon KDP as a workbook. Easy extra income source.

There is no “right way” to operate a newsletter.
