The Other Woman | Washington and Puget Sound Business News Source | Seattle Business Magazine

www.seattlebusinessmag.com — I'll never forget the look on my husband's face when he held Betty for the first time. Cradling her almost reverently with a sparkle in his eyes and a childlike sense of wonder, Jim examined every facet of her sexy, smooth skin to ensure she was flawless and virginal, as promised. It was the way he used to gaze at me. He spent days researching Betty's numerous talents and learning how to best use and care for her. She was sleek, with smooth curves, a vision of perfection. She sang to him, dazzled him with sports trivia and kept him abreast of the latest news.

southsoundmag.com — Find Fruit-Forward Liqueurs at Kent's Sidetrack Distillery By Dana E. Neuts | Photos by Rachel Coward Tucked away in the Kent Valley, along the Green River, lies the Lazy River Farm, a lush, 6-acre orchard that yields fruit, nuts and herbs used by Sidetrack Distillery to make specialty spirits. Larry and Linda Person purchased the farm 20 years ago. They planted berries and had a U-pick business as a weekend hobby, but in 2010, after leaving the construction industry, they decided to try their hand at making liqueurs. Four years later, that hobby is a satisfying full-time job for the couple and their nephew, David O'Neal.

Enumclaw: A lot to like in a small town

Enumclaw: A lot to like in a small town

Seattle Times — Originally published March 16, 2013 at 9:52 AM | Page modified March 20, 2013 at 7:22 PM Though she'd worked for the city of Kent for 20 years, Lesli Mataya, 52, has always had a fondness for Enumclaw, a small town of about 11,000 in the south end of King County. Her mother's family had grown up in Enumclaw, and the community had always felt like home to her. She was eager to return there after living in Maple Valley for years. "It was everything I wanted. It was worth the additional 15 minutes of commute time," says Mataya.

425magazine.com — Professional Organizer Shows You How By Dana E. Neuts | Photos courtesy Crate&Barrel Mail stacked on the table. Bowls piled in the kitchen sink. Shoes dropped around the door. Does this sound like your home? If so, you're not alone. Professional organizer Annie Brooks of Blessed with Less in Kent believes we are so busy working, commuting and taking care of our families that we have little time to get and stay organized. "It's like a dirty little secret," Brooks says. "When we don't know how to turn disorganization around, we tend to do nothing."

10 Ways to Boost Your Freelance Bottom Line By Dana E. Neuts

writersweekly.com — Whether you are a full-time freelancer, or are just dabbling in the writing life, there are countless ways to make money writing. Here are 10 ways to boost your bottom line this year: 1. Pitching media organizations: Newspapers, magazines and online outlets will always need story pitches. The keys are subject matter, timing and expertise. You've got to pitch a brand new story, or an old theme with a new spin at the right time, and show the outlet why you're the perfect writer for the job. This can take time, and doesn't always produce immediate cash flow, but it can become a writer's primary source of income if done right.

Working Separately, Together | brass

www.brassmagazine.com — The gig economy lets you freelance and work from home to your heart's content. The problem is that home can be distracting. Dogs! TV! Cozy couches! Some people need more discipline and structure, while others crave the creativity that bubbles up in a community of fellow professionals. A coworking environment combines the best of both worlds. Coworking can take a variety of forms, ranging from informal space in cafes and coffee shops to more formal settings like an office building or co-op. The purpose, however, is typically the same--providing a common space for independent workers to work side by side where they can network, collaborate, and share resources.
