the business plan and whatnot

I've always hated writing anything that resembles a report. Despite the fact that, in the end, I usually do well. It's that confidence thing poking at me, again.

I'm trying not to view the business plan as something unpleasant and painful - though I suspect I am not alone. It was so much easier to get the ideas and concepts out of my head when sitting and chatting with the business counselor. Still, I have managed to get a good deal down and it's a relief. I think I have enough to warrant some feedback, in which case I'll email this first rough draft tomorrow. I know how important it is to have a business plan and that such documents tend to evolve over time, so I shouldn't fret about it at this stage, really.

Oh, yes - and I registered my business name - ninapatina - on Friday! Very exciting. Though I keep wondering if I should feel any different. You know - more serious? Less humorous and optimistic? Hmpf. Anyway, I plan to ask the business guy a lot about taxes and what I need to do to stay out of trouble. I'll be working with an accountant, as well, which will take a weight off my mind. I don't want to wake in the middle of the night with a large question mark burned on my retinas. My dreams are strange enough as it is, thank you very much!
