Side Hustle Spark 236: More writing freebies from Scribe Media

I’ve posted resources from Scribe Media in the past. Today’s post pretty much packages everything I’d promoted in those earlier posts. Enjoy!

Here now is BookSchool, with links to:

** four self-directed courses covering the topics highlighted in the word cloud above

** a download link to Tucker Max’s book, The Scribe Method

** a link to Scribe Media’s YouTube Channel

** a link to their podcast

Other Scribe Media resources can be found here.


Speaking of writing…and sharing the admirable work of others…time for my own book recommendations…

These seven titles are go-to sources of inspiration and valued experience. These are affiliate links which, if you use to preview and buy the product, won’t raise the product’s price and will earn me a commission. At that point, I’ll be that much closer to buying that unclaimed island in the Caribbean. Please don’t ask for the island’s coordinates. It is mine and you can’t have it. ;->

This list cuts across so many lines of productivity and accomplishment. Whether you use my links or go elsewhere, get your hands on these.

  • 5 marketing myths keeping you busy, stuck and broke.
  • The only 4 things you need to set up to market yourself online.
  • 5 common marketing mistakes (and what to do instead).
  • How you can get started authentically marketing yourself right away!
