I desperately want to crush the idea that your writing has to be important.

You know what’s important?

Having fun.

Since I’ve started to embrace this, I’ve written more in a year than i had in the 40 years prior. 

Write the story you want to read.  Have fun.  That’s all.

This is pretty much the most important piece of writing advice anyone can ever give you.

This is true. Writing from a place of “I must create something important” will almost certainly make that writing forced and unnatural and not good. The only person it needs to be important to is YOU.

Writing from a place of passion makes your story important to you, and if it’s important to you, others will recognize it as important.

This kind of stuff is so common in Mexico, in the best case is just a pyramid scam but thanks to this post I know they may be sex trafficking

Reblogging this here because this is extremely important!!! Please be careful everyone!!!

My mom told me about this stuff!

Reminder that Lagongirl’s account was found to be a Russian troll account focused on spreading misinformation in black communities.

Long story short the random assortment of people who will call or show up for a job interview is basically the opposite of what traffickers want and they are even less likely to want teens looking for an after school job because those kids will be noticed as missing immediately.

Traffickers target marginalized groups, including immigrants, victims of domestic violence, runaways, drug addicts, and other people who won’t be noticed right away if they go missing, or whose connections aren’t likely to contact the police.

That being said, pretty much everything being advertised on a sign like that is some kind of scam, fraud, or MLM thing where you’re going to lose money and get sucked into doing a lot of work while you’re losing money, so you still shouldn’t call those numbers, but reporting these kinds of signs to trafficking tip-lines uses resources that could be used to prevent more common or dangerous kinds of human trafficking.
