Writer Squeezin’s — Content Creation is not Easy
Sometimes creative content must be just pushed out. Sometimes we’re hard-pressed to explain it at all.

Some people know I’m a businessman. I live on a ranch. Not a dude-ranch, either.
The Writer Squeezin’s ranch is the real deal. Dirt and dust everywhere, not painted scenery like on The Rifleman, it is sun-baked and inhabited by a pretty rough crowd.
We're not like a farm, growing kale for somebody's pretty house salad. We are a working ranch.
What we are proudest of, though, is that from time to time we’ll get a new ranch hand who wants to work hard and learn the ropes. He can work as a ranch hand and go up the ranks to ranch foreman. Eventually, he can be in a position the gather up his own herd of books, articles, and stories, and drive that herd to the library in Kansas City. Or Cincinnati.
He can find him a couple hundred acres and start up his own ranch. Life can be great.
The truth is, that most people have a living-on-the-beach and drinking cocktails-with-small-umbrellas idea of being a cowboy (ranch hand.) It is, however, very hard work.
The only callouses you will develop will probably be on your brain from having to get it up and get it to work every day, and lots of times the new cowboy just quits after the job becomes boring.
The bottom line is… If you still think you want to be a cowboy or ranch-hand, we've got some openings. We can help bring you along towards where you want to be.
If you have the guts to run with this rough crowd, come on along. There is work to be done.
There is a stagecoach due in a couple of hours bringing us a shipment of tiny umbrellas. And they are not going to unload themselves.
