Hyper Sensitivity and Point of View
This post is sort of a rant, but I guess it’s more of a commentary on the sad state of our hyper sensitivity. I received an email today from someone who read one of my older articles. This person apparently took exception to the fact that I used the words “darn it.” The article [...]
My Unofficial Online Writing Degree
February 9th marks my 4-year anniversary of the beginning of my online writing career. It’s almost like completing 4 years of college. In usual Felicia mode, I have to look back and reflect. You know, there’s something about aging that makes a person more reflective. Fortunately, I’ve kept an electronic journal. My journal started the [...]
Help from the NJFM Community
Sometimes I get emails for help that I feel would be handled better if I share it with the NJFM community. I like helping folks, but my experience and knowledge is limited. Another of my favorite sayings is, “You don’t have to know the answers; you just have to know were to go to get [...]
Smelling the Roses
I think I need to take a little time to smell the roses. Over the past four years I’ve spent quite a bit of time writing on line. I’ve spent quite a bit of time wasting my time online too. It just seems that I always have a computer attached to the end of my [...]
A Little Spreadsheet Tip
There are a few things I do with the Income/Article Spreadsheet that might help to make your day easier. For you folks who are spreadsheet junkies, you can skip this post because I’m not going to talk about anything new or earth shattering, just something that I do to make my life easier. Column Headings [...]
Could it be My Cookies?
I need a little help from you guys. When I first uploaded the Income/Article Tracking Spreadsheet, I realized that I had forgotten to insert the auto update feature for the column headings for each month. In other words, if you change the column headings in January, it was supposed to auto update the headings for [...]
A Shout Out to Christina at Cash Campfire
Check out this clever post by Christina over at Cash Campfire. Christina managed to pull off interviews at the busiest time of the year, compile them in an extensive post and display it brilliantly on her blog. Christina, my hat is off to you. Great job and I believe it will pay off handsomely for [...]
NJFM Income/Article Tracking Spreadsheet
You all know that I’m a numbers junkie and I track a host of stats when it comes to my online writing. My stats are helping me to determine what and where to write in 2011 (I’ll get into more detail about that in a later post). In the meanwhile, I’d like to share a [...]
My Traveling Office
The weather is cold and I’d much prefer walking in a warm balmy climate, but I find that walking for a couple of miles does much to clear my mind and help my writing flow (no matter how cold it is). The only problem with going for a walk is that my best ideas seem [...]
Time to Join the Double O Club
I feel that I’ve been playing around with this freelance writing stuff long enough. No matter how my residual income fluctuates, I’ve decided to enter and remain in the Double O Club. The Double O Club means that I can calculate my minimum daily income by tacking two zeros on the back of the date. [...]
