THE STORY BEHIND PET ROCKS....

"There's a pet rock in your future."

That "Pet Rock" quote is something, Tere B., the Muse, said to me on more than one occasion over the years.

Ever since I can remember, I've had a tendency towards entreprennurialism. The last five years or so, ideas for things like businesses, services, products, marketing strategies, ways to acheive world peace by solving all the worlds problems and things of those natures, pop into my head on virtually a daily basis. It can be quite difficult to focus!

The creation of this website and the upcoming magazine have really helped to give me an outlet to plug all those lightbulbs into. Yet, I am still flooded with ideas and I just don't have any time to do anything about most of them. I'm hoping someone could use some of these ideas and run with them.

Please don't give me any credit if any one of these ideas inspires someone to be fruitful in some way. The one who nurtured the seed deserves the credit. For without the caretaker, the seed could not grow and flourish. Unless of course, it was a wildflower seed. But ideas are not wildflowers that grow on their own, they must be nurtured.

Perhaps there is a Pet Rock in your future...

In fact you may find these sites inspiring, FUN and helpful (I saved the best for last):
