Affiliate Marketing Secrets

i hope to offfer products and services on the net

So I’ll try to keep this succinct: so creative writing is pretty much my passion/my niche in life and I took this class my freshman year of college three years ago with an AMAZING professor who resonated so well for me, he taught me so much and I definitely saw myself in him, and essentially, he just inspired me so much. So I started a novel around a year later after thinking about his class and the impact it had on me. Well the thing that impacted me the most was when he wrote on one of my essays once: “Do you write a lot? It sure seems to me like you write a lot, given your style.” he gave me many other compliments as well that just got me to think. So currently, I’m about 90 pages into this novel that I just feel it’s a story I NEED to tell would it be completely inappropriate if I emailed this old professor (he’s a published novelist as well, with lots of connections too) and ask him to be my mentor, or at the very least read what I’ve got so far in my novel and comment on it? It’s my dream and if he could be an advocate to make it happen that would be miraculous! He’s a nice guy too, but it’s still intimidating. He was once the writer in residence at a major university.
S would I make a fool out of myself to ask or no?? What are the pros and cons?? He probably doesn’t even remember who I am…

I’m ready to learn and do what ever needed to start my own business. I just want to know how. Last few days besides job I spend of thinking what kind of business I want. I understand that I want financial Independence and for me its doesn’t really matters in witch niche to start.
I have no lots of money so any possible cheap business is fine with me. I just want to spend my time for better future for me and my family. That is my motivation. I want to be a better man.
I looked for possibilities to earn from offline affiliate, my plan was to advertise trough flyers in the evenings but I didn’t find anything that would work. Or maybe I’m just too scared to try.
So if you have any information where i could find usefull information or motivation for start, please share you’re knowledge.
Great would be to know some schemes that work that would help me to rise funds for better businees.

Please point me in the right direction.
I’m just getting started with trying to make money online. I’m gearing towards affiliate marketing because I don’t have a lot of money to spend. I don’t have my own product and never owned my own business.
There are many Internet Strategies and products that people are trying to sell. I don’t know which to trust. Some of them just want your money and not really trying to help you.
Is there a good mentor to learn from or site to get started with Internet Marketing mainly, affiliate marketing?
Thanks in advance!
