Everything Old is New Again

My regular readers will notice something vaguely familiar about this WordPress theme. Yep, you guessed it, it’s the old WordPress theme with a few color changes (I’m still working on the color thing). It’s a long story, but here’s why the change… It’s All About the Sitemap This whole thing started because I was working [...]

My 300th Post – Yawn!

This is my 300th post and it should be profound…It’s not! I knew the 300th post was coming up, but it caught me at a time where I’m feeling a little singed around the edges. Although my November earnings were higher than my October earnings, my residual income was down by a little over $200; [...]

My 250th Post

Wow. It seems like I started this blog yesterday. My first official post was on March 8, 2008. Well, it really wasn’t. You may or may not know that this blog started out as a static website. I later transformed it into a WordPress blog. The upside to the transformation process is that I can [...]

Time to Remove the Clutter

I was about to backup my computer for my semi-annual reformat and software reinstall which helps to keep my computer running smoothly when and I stopped and took a picture of my desktop. One picture is worth a thousand words. The Word.doc icons are all articles that I’m in the process of writing. Some of [...]

Welcome to the Buffet

On occasion I like to cook a lot. When I do cook a large quantity of food, I pull out the heating dishes, arrange the food buffet style and invite my guest to partake. In addition to the food I provide the necessary plates, spoons forks, dishes, napkins, cups and beverage. My guests are free [...]

Lessons Learned from Demand Studios

Writing for Demand Studios is an interesting adventure. It constantly teaches me more about myself. For example, this weekend I learned that I’d rather be rich than the right (at least when it comes to DS). Let me explain. Over the past few days I wrote several articles for DS.  The articles were on a [...]

Suite Just Got Sweeter!

Suite 101 recently made changes to their writing guidelines. For folks who write for Suite should take a moment to review the new writing guidelines.

A Short Post of Thanks

I’ve never written and released an ebook before and I want to take the time to thank Grandma and Angela. Grandma took time from her busy schedule to review and correct a ton of typos and Angela took the time to give me feedback. If you are a subscriber to the NJFM newsletter, you already [...]

How to Handle Some Comments

On occasion I receive comments with typos. On occasion I upload posts/articles with typos. It happens. When I catch a typo in my work or someone else’s work I either correct it or notify the author of the typo. I’d rather someone correct me than allow my work to stay forever incorrect on the internet.

Oh No She Didn’t!!!

Let me calm down for a minute before I complete this post…. Okay, I’m calm. Yesterday a young college student looking to earn money for a scholarship came to my house asking if we would sign up for a magazine subscription. The credit for the magazine would help her score points for her scholarship. Having [...]

Things One of My Blogs Taught Me

I decided to truly analyze one of my blogs that started earning money from the first month of being on the web. That surprised me because it doesn’t get a lot of traffic. Since it consistently earns money each month, I decided to see what I had done differently on that blog that I had [...]

Choosing the Write Path

As I mentioned in an earlier post, the month of August is a month of reflection and re-evaluation. If you don’t take time to look at where you’ve been, you’re bound to make a few errors in judgment going forward. So, in order to plan for the future, you must take the past into consideration. [...]
