Jump out of cyber land and come find me in the real world. First date... I am a welcomed adventure... Not an option. If you can see that, then I am down for most any adventure.

You’re ready to sit and write your online dating profile. Well you’re not sure you feel ready, but you know you have to do it.You take a deep breath, power up the familiar glow and stare at that blank screen.That blinking cursor mocks you, like fingers tapping on a desk, asking when you’re going to write something.First of all, just like you can imagine more than one way to murder your ever-yelling neighbors, there’s no singular way to go about writing a profile.However, I get you don’t always want to be thrown into the deep end of a pool to figure out how to swim.For this exercise, I’m going to take you through one of the ways I write profiles for clients.Copy the format of the written profile of the site you’re using to a Word document. This way you have the prompts ready and you can write them without feeling pressured to finish and publish it.“Write drunk; edit sober.” ~“Write drunk; edit sober. Wait. Read it again.” ~ Gina Stewart1. Write drunk. Oh, no? Well at least I have my sense of humor.Anyway, while I won’t expressly advocate drinking whilst working on your profile (but it can help), I will say the spirit of this quote is one I embrace.When I first sit to write profiles or articles, I destroy that digital piece of paper by making it my digital dumping grounds.Start with a general umbrella idea and just start typing everything out: what you know you want to say, what you think you want to say and everything else that comes to mind.Pour out all the thoughts in your head. Half-baked facts, ideas, thoughts all get slewed on there.If you can’t think of exactly how you want to express something, just write how you sort of want to say it. Order and structure have no place.Place no judgment on anything you type. Even if it sounds silly as it starts to roll off your finger tips, just let it keep rolling. Slop it out there like you’re a rambling drunk.Remember, it’s always easier to delete than it is to create, so while you’re in creation mode, just let those things come out as much as possible.Never edit yourself as you write. Don’t feel like you have to have it planned out before you write. Just start writing. “Ultimately, your profile isn’t just about you. It’s about how others will react to you.”2. Edit sober.Once you’ve written a bunch of stuff and feel kind of tired and tapped out, then go away.Put your mind on something else: sometimes it’s another project, sometimes it’s going out to dinner, sometimes it’s taking a walk. Whatever.Clear the space of where your head was just at for a while. Create that “sobriety.”Then after some time has passed, go back and start moving what you’ve written around so it’s in a more coherent order. And that’s where we start the “sober edit.”Put like thoughts with like thoughts and create some sense out of what is on the Lets just see what sparks our interst and enjoy each other...We could go race big wheels..if you feel like you could keep up!!!

Hi...if you're reading this...thanks for stopping to look. So, I'll just list a few things about me...1. My hobbies include: reading, hanging out with family and friends, pretty much anything sci-fi, playing munchkin or magic the gathering, cooking for people, camping, fishing, canning and prepping, gardening...2...I would love to be a stay at home mom...living off the land.3. What make me unique? What you see...is not what you get...I have many layers, not necessarily complex, but maybe a bit mysterious. This is a really tough question...because I'm my worst critic. So I'm moving on to the last one...4. In terms of music...I pretty much like it all...except for rap. I grew up on show tunes...but I'm a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll. I like going out to eat, so a nice dinner somewhere would be great. That way we can talk and get to know one another.
