Thursday: How to Make a Six Figure Income as a Miniaturist, According to Copilot
I had to ask this! Maybe this is AI I can get behind, but who knows if this plan would really work. Seems as good a plan as any, right? Honestly, I’d rather if AI could keep my studio in order… ~~~~~~~~ Copilot: Creating a successful schedule for a professional miniaturist aiming to earn $120,000…

Friday: Strange but Amazing Point in Life RN
It’s a strange, but very exciting time right now. I am about 3 days away from a summer television project airing for a Canadian audience. I think my appearance on it will just be a pleasant pop of an experience, with a quick wind down and back to normal. However, I have learned to not…

Tuesday: I have no space
Some random thoughts tonight…mostly about space. I need to find new homes for my tiny homes, but I cannot bear the thought of them in any other home than mine. Each house is a moment of my brain, and for that reason alone, I feel like they should stay with me. This is a familiar…

It operates 24/7, has an international airport, and you can even find oysters at 3 am without it being unusual. Its quirkiness and easy travel access aligns with my lifestyle. Las…

International Marketplace of Miniature Artisans
To meet others of like minds on a subject that you share is potent today. It is SO DIFFICULT to connect with people on an authentic level, but when you are talking about something you are both passionate about, it makes connecting much easier.
