Freelance Writing and Rainy Days

Freelance Writing and Rainy Days

I tried searching NJFM for the term “rainy day” and realized the only place the term showed up was on page 15 in my ebook “So You Want to Become a Freelance Writer.” Since I didn’t write about it here on NJFM I feel I need to talk about it now. Writing and Rain If [...]

Selling Old Books on Amazon

Selling Old Books on Amazon

I came across a video the other day on how to sell things on Amazon (yes, I’m late to the Amazon party). I’ve always used Amazon to buy things but never to sell anything. For those of you who were clueless (like me) about selling things on Amazon, embedded below is a concise and informative [...]

I’m Back and on a Mission!

I’m Back and on a Mission!

There’s something to be said for adversity. Personally, I don’t like facing too much adversity at one time, but every time I do I come out on the other end stronger. The power outage was an inconvenience and an experience to learn from. There were several action items I took away from the experience. I’ve [...]

Back to Suite

Back to Suite

I recently made the decision to pick up where I left off at Suite 101. Things have changed quite a bit at Suite so I’m no longer the Insurance Feature Writer, but I have agreed to write at least one article a month to meet the Feature Writer requirement. Making the Decision After the Panda [...]

I Thought So

I Thought So

Being the numbers junkie that I am, I keep close track of my earnings, and to a lesser degree my page views. I especially keep track of my Google earnings to get an indication if Panda is morphing into a kinder or meaner type of animal. According to my numbers, somewhere around September 22nd, things [...]

August Earnings: Close but No Cigar

August Earnings: Close but No Cigar

This Internet is a fickle beast. A few weeks ago I was on track to reach my pre-eHow closure and pre-Panda earnings. However, things slowed down just a bit towards the end of the month (earthquakes and hurricanes do have an affect on earnings). All in all, I consider August to be a successful month [...]

Thanks Google AdSense Team

Thanks Google AdSense Team

Yesterday I received an email from the Google AdSense team. The email advised that I was under utilizing ad space on my site. Apparently they had gone though one of my sites and noted that I was only using two Google ad units when I could actually use three. In their email they included the [...]

When is a Blog Really a Dud?

When is a Blog Really a Dud?

My last post made me ask myself (and answer) the question of what to do with dud sites.  First, before I tell you what I do with a site that I consider a dud, I need to define a dud.  Keep in mind that this post is purely subjective and I strongly suggest that you [...]

The Attitude of Abundance vs. Scarcity

The Attitude of Abundance vs. Scarcity

This post was inspired by Michael’s (Demand Studio Review) comment. His comment was regarding something I had written about the eHow writer’s compensation program closure. He had inquired as to why I did not take my eHow articles and place them on a newly created website to earn residual income off of the 300 or [...]

It Takes Money to Make Money…Sort Of

It Takes Money to Make Money…Sort Of

It actually takes currency to make money. It’s up to you to determine your currency. I sometimes roam around the Internet reading how some bloggers/writers built their online empire (well not empire, but you know what I mean). Some people create sites, hire writers and earn money. Others purchase memberships to sites that help them [...]
