Meet & Greet: Rosemary O'Brien (Part 2)

* What was the inspiration or catalyst for the creation of your business?

My two young boys.  Before I even had them, I knew I wanted to be home with them.  I also enjoy working at home and creating my own schedule.  Sometimes I work best at night.

* What steps did you follow to build your business?  Are you still in the process of planning a new business?

I just did it!  I researched, developed article ideas, queried editors, then completed the project.  What a great feeling to see your byline on that very first magazine article!

* Please tell us about the resources you've used thus far and would recommend to others (or steer them away from).  Take a moment to share your educational background (both academic and work-based) and point out things that have helped or hindered you along the way from that education.

I have a B.A. in English and Creative Writing from San Diego State University.  This was the fifth school I attended due to the intervention of life in my educational plans.  I ended up returning to school in my mid-twenties and graduating with honors at 33.  I'm living proof that you can do it!  I then picked the brains of every writer I met, especially when I worked as an A.A. for a writer's organization in Washington, D.C.  I sat there one day and thought, "If they're doing it, why can't I?"  The rest is history.  It took hard work, but it's all worth it.
