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. Cut to the Chase I’m guilty of being the typical online reader. I scanned through the announcement and pulled out two things that were of interest to me: We no [...]
How to Create a Free eBook
Hopefully you have already downloaded, read and enjoyed my recent ebook So You Want to Be a Freelance Writer: A Newbie’s Motivational Guide to Online Freelance Writing (boy that’s a mouthful). When I was putting the book together I ran into a huge bout of writer’s block. I wasn’t blocked because of the subject matter. [...]
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 [...]

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. [...]
Dream Big and Think Long Term
How much money do you want to earn in residual income each month? I’d really like to see $10,000 a month in residuals. How soon would I like to have $10,000 a month? I’d love to have it yesterday but I’m willing to be realistic. Let’s say I want to earn $10,000 in monthly residual [...]
