Got off the phone with a business mentor from SCORE. She actually let me ramble, then helped narrow down that it’s the non-profit route I could/should go in. I paused several times to see if she wanted me to pause, but she just let me be. It was so nice not to be told to stop or interjected.

She actually saw value even when. She didn’t understand some of the lingo cause she’s not a gamer/rper. But still! It felt nice. For the first time it feels a bit more concrete.

Tomorrow I will record and put out a 2nd presentation on YouTube, then I’ll start a Tumblr community where people can put how game/RP communities have changed their lives, or how meeting someone across the divide helped, maybe help folks leverage their own lives towards their own advantage through life.

My goal is to still map out what I want the network to be, but I have to first gather proof from new stories on how this is possible. Then, a book to help act as a Lead generator. I think it will be one short book or several short books, but….

I have a goal. I have a goal, by the end of this year, or by March 2026… hmm. No, I want a book out by the end of this year. 2025, especially because I truly want to see change by 2050.

25 more years… I’m so ready for this.
