I have a blog called Says LaDonna. I created it to help people around the world with their journey through life. I write to help people understand themselves and others by learning from their own experiences and the experiences of others. In my blog, write about my ongoing journey and I share stories. I think there is something to be learned from everything we do and I think we should put it to use in our daily lives. I love to write, I love people, and I truly want to help others. Who doesn't love a good story? Please check out my blog and take this journey with me at SaysLaDonna.wordpress.com.

I know how hard writing can be for many people but, thankfully, this is who I am and I am happy to help because there are many things that I am no good at. So in addition to my blog, I offer writing, proofreading and editing services. My biggest editing job lately was a dissertation for a PHD Graduate student but no job is too big or small. I am currently working with a couple of students and one company but I love editing so if you've got something to write and you need my help, contact me for a quote. I am very reasonable. I'm building a business around helping people. Check out my work at SaysLaDonna.wordpress.com. Tell your friends about me.

In my life, I've done a lot of struggling and surviving, but most people don't know when I go through it, even if they were there. They just see happy me. This isn't because I lie and keep everything bottled up, this is just me. I am relatively happy most of the time. I aim for a life of comfort. It doesn't take much to make me smile but it takes a lot to keep me down. When I see people struggling through tough situations, I want to help. I am a natural motivator, I push my friends and family to always do the best they can and I help them when I can. On my journey through life, I've been on many emotional rollercoasters, and at this point, I have found that there are few life situations that I can’t relate to.

I’ve been through a lot in my life. I started working at 14, I’m the oldest child, and I have four siblings. I’ve worked as an Artist, Office Manager, Admin Asst, Executive Asst, Legal Asst, Host Card Asst, Medication Asst, Teller, Cashier, and who knows what else through temp agencies. I’ve worked at a department store, grocery store, cookie store and a pretzel store. I’ve stuffed envelopes and I even sold knives door to door. I survived a life-changing illness, came out of the closet, lost loved ones, helped raise children, and I’ve had long term relationships with both men and women. I’ve been laid off twice. I lost over 80 lbs in a year and kept it off (Naturally - No surgery). I have an estranged father and a new stepfather. I’ve lived alone, in the ghetto, in the suburbs and in college housing. I’ve been abused, robbed, and more than once, I nearly died.

So if you are having a hard time, talk to me. I know how life can be, I understand confidentiality, so your secrets are safe with me. If you need some advice, I’m sure I can help you find your way. I am a very understanding and reasonable person. I want to see everyone succeed.
