It’s Friday and my kids don’t have school, so for the second time in a week I slept in. I feel a little bit like a new person. And by “new person” I mean “bets are on me NOT ending up in the looney bin today.” Then again… I have the whole day with my […]

“we have a term for that”

By ashleygainer | April 18, 2024

Will’s neighborhood had a big community yard sale this past weekend, so the kids and I collected a bunch of stuff we would have otherwise donated and we went out for it. Let the kids keep all the money that came from their stuff, and gave them a hefty 50% commission on anything of ours […]

my birthday present to youuuuuuu

By ashleygainer | April 17, 2024

and no, it doesn’t cost you a thing It’s mah birf day! I took the morning off work and slept until almost 7, yay. I’ve been banned from leaving my room because there’s birthday mischief afoot. The sounds of kids in the kitchen occasionally make their way under the door… So it’s just you and […]

catatonic vs. cataclysmic

By ashleygainer | April 16, 2024

So. Real talk. When you do what I do, working for yourself as a client-facing service provider in a creative field… There are times when you’re curled up in the fetal position, staring at the wall catatonically because nothing is going to plan and everything feels harder than it should be and it seems impossible […]

oops, I lied šŸ˜¬

By ashleygainer | April 15, 2024

(didn’t mean to, honest) I made a massive mistake when I first told you about this week’s summit. What day was it, Thursday? Last week was all a blur. I’d shared that I’m one of the handful of speakers in a summit (happening this week!) and that it was free to join. Which it is […]

“whataya want from me”

By ashleygainer | April 12, 2024

For reasons I currently do not understand, I have this persistent memory that takes place in a parking lot near my college campus. I was walking from a food place on Franklin street to some kind of afternoon event, don’t remember which one… And I was crossing the parking lot outside my freshman year dorm. […]

Thank you, Ashley! By following your advice I just got my first paying gig.

Without a website or any social media presence! I used the clips I created in Clips Camp and I just decided to go for it. I would not have taken these steps to launch my freelance business without your guidance. You are so real and honest about your journey; you made freelance writing seem possible. And now it is possible for me. I have never felt more confident in myself and my abilities!

Your classes, Facebook group, Instagram, and just general approachability have really driven me to want to succeed at this.

It feels like someone is in my corner all the time. Thanks for your mentoring- keep up the great work!!

I finally found a freelance writer/course creator I could personally relate to

I've been looking into freelance writing for over a year now. There's a lot of information out there and a lot of people who claim to be able to teach the "best" way to go about being a writerā€¦. I prefer your down-to-earth style of teaching.
