LeechBlock for Online Time Efficiency
I’m reading the 4 Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss for the second time. If you haven’t read it yet, I suggest you borrow it from your local library (as I’ve done) or purchase a copy. I’ve borrowed it twice from the library and think it’s time for me to purchase my own copy. What I [...]
Letting Go of Yesterday to Make Room for Tomorrow
With my new online writing strategy I decided to go through my existing blogs, my computer hard drive, my hosting account, databases and anything else that’s related to earning money online and clean out the deadwood. Because I’ve created and discontinued so many blogs, my HostGator account had quite a few unused databases so I [...]
Why NJFM Will Always be a Blog for Beginners
This blog gives beginners a glimpse into one person’s online writing journey. It is not a how to blog or a must follow blog. It’s just a blog chronicling my successes, failures and ideas. Why for Beginners I say it’s a blog for beginners because beginners usually lack confidence, have a lot of questions and [...]
The Other Side of the Writing Coin
I finally got around to putting my specs together in order to hire a few Textbroker writers to write some content for me. It was an interesting experience. The one thing I did learn about this experience is that I am a freelance writer. As a freelance writer I find it difficult to hire other [...]
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 [...]

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 [...]
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 [...]
I’m a Writer Not a Journalist
Every once in a while I allow myself to roam around the internet reading other writing sites or forums. Without fail, I’ll come across a few posts or forum threads that are less than flattering to online writers. Often times the comments are from folks who have extensive experience writing in off line publications and [...]
A Few Things I Learned about Writing for the Web
From time to time I get the opportunity to help out a few newbies by reviewing an article or two and offering advice. I preface this by saying that I’m no expert when it comes to writing on the web. It’s just that I’ve been around the block a time or two so I get [...]
