You’re ready to sit and write your online dating profile. Well you’re not sure you feel ready, but you know you have to do it.You take a deep breath, power up the familiar glow and stare at that blank screen.That blinking cursor mocks you, like fingers tapping on a desk, asking when you’re going to write something.First of all, just like you can imagine more than one way to murder your ever-yelling neighbors, there’s no singular way to go about writing a profile.However, I get you don’t always want to be thrown into the deep end of a pool to figure out how to swim.For this exercise, I’m going to take you through one of the ways I write profiles for clients.Copy the format of the written profile of the site you’re using to a Word document. This way you have the prompts ready and you can write them without feeling pressured to finish and publish it.“Write drunk; edit sober.” ~“Write drunk; edit sober. Wait. Read it again.” ~ Gina Stewart1. Write drunk. Oh, no? Well at least I have my sense of humor.Anyway, while I won’t expressly advocate drinking whilst working on your profile (but it can help), I will say the spirit of this quote is one I embrace.When I first sit to write profiles or articles, I destroy that digital piece of paper by making it my digital dumping grounds.Start with a general umbrella idea and just start typing everything out: what you know you want to say, what you think you want to say and everything else that comes to mind.Pour out all the thoughts in your head. Half-baked facts, ideas, thoughts all get slewed on there.If you can’t think of exactly how you want to express something, just write how you sort of want to say it. Order and structure have no place.Place no judgment on anything you type. Even if it sounds silly as it starts to roll off your finger tips, just let it keep rolling. Slop it out there like you’re a rambling drunk.Remember, it’s always easier to delete than it is to create, so while you’re in creation mode, just let those things come out as much as possible.Never edit yourself as you write. Don’t feel like you have to have it planned out before you write. Just start writing. “Ultimately, your profile isn’t just about you. It’s about how others will react to you.”2. Edit sober.Once you’ve written a bunch of stuff and feel kind of tired and tapped out, then go away.Put your mind on something else: sometimes it’s another project, sometimes it’s going out to dinner, sometimes it’s taking a walk. Whatever.Clear the space of where your head was just at for a while. Create that “sobriety.”Then after some time has passed, go back and start moving what you’ve written around so it’s in a more coherent order. And that’s where we start the “sober edit.”Put like thoughts with like thoughts and create some sense out of what is on the Lets just see what sparks our interst and enjoy each other...We could go race big wheels..if you feel like you could keep up!!!

I am looking like everyone for that right person. I am outspoken, but can love like Shakespeare. Don't **** with me, cause I will **** you up , just letting people know up front. I have a gorgeous 12 year old daughter who I adore and she comes first, but I do have time in my life for the right person. I am looking for a guy that can hang with me and my daughter and that can take my Australian sense of humor. Not everyone can! a great steak in a great dim booth!

Ask and you shall receive. I love movies, music and fun. Can be a girly girl or a tomboy depending on the situation. Lived in Vegas for several years but still have not experienced Vegas. I like the outdoors and will do the occasional camping trip when the heat is to much to bear or if I just need to get away from the city life. Hmm...I will leave this to your imagination...

First i'll say i do not love that i have to rate my body and intentions within the box. I consider myself curvy but athletic so there. I'm looking to date but if it develops into something then I'm open to that. I'm very easy going and love to have fun. I love hanging out at the river, back yard bbq's and having a few brews while playing pool. I love to cook but also enjoy a fine wine (with some yummy cheese) and dining. I enjoy being spontaneous, traveling and surprises. I won't tell you everything about me... leave a little intrigue right? I want to find someone that's fun, confident sweet, sarcastic and sexy. Send me a message if you think we're a good fit.There's no need to message me if you are sending pictures of you half naked in the bathroom mirror or asking what I'm wearing. I'm not that girl..... unless you're already my man! Let's change it up.... not a boring interview at a coffee shop. This is supposed to be fun right?
