For some people, the thought of quitting their day job to pursue the entrepreneurial life is exhilarating. For many others, it's terrifying. After all, a stable job that delivers a regular paycheck is a blessing. And not everyone has the means or the desire to take on the risks and responsibilities of working for themselves. But what if we could quickly and easily create an additional stream of income without giving up the security of a full-time job? Enter the side hustle.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, an intrapreneur, or a not-for-profit leader, there's no shortage of advice on such topics as writing a business plan, recruiting, raising capital, and branding. In fact there are so many books, articles, and websites that many startups get bogged down to the point of paralysis, or they focus on the wrong priorities and go broke before they discover their mistakes.

Eye Opener
I love this book! I love her passion, care, and devotion to her readers. I laughed when she laughed and was steaming mad when she was angry, too. I rooted for Guylay the whole time because she put forth a true eye opener of a book for those of us wanting to become career writers or those seeking a hobby to write.
Guylay pulled the veil away from the publishing industry. The mystery of making it in this business has been revealed, and she provides a course of action with links to her blog.
