I'm on my second teen - my first was male and my second is female - both have been vastly different experiences. One is headed for a traditional college experience the other forwent college and is following his culinary dreams.
I have a BHAG (big hairy audacious goal) of getting the First Moon Manual into the hands of 50,000 young women across the nation. The journey to 50,000 books sold starts with the first book. This journey is full of amazing people, support from unknown places, and watching myself surpass 50,000 and grow like wildflowers in a field.
