Visit me online at http://www.mishahogan.comI love to travel and speak to different groups and at conferences on how to get published by a big publisher, how to write books, how to promote your books and writing, on how to live on less, homestead, live off-the-grid, unschool your kids, and deal with homelessness.In my 40 + years on Earth, I have been a waitress, bartender, nursing assistant, tour guide for Ben and Jerry's, restaurant owner, farmer, dog musher, bread-baker, and page in the U.S. Senate...a few other things too.
