The other day I was talking to my brother about work, writing, jobs, etc. He’s a successful executive and travels extensively. There are times when he’s out of town more days in a month than at home. For his troubles, he’s paid handsomely.
Being more of a free spirit I enjoyed earning money according to my [...]

Why I Love Residual Writing Income
The Only Way to NOT Make Money Online is to Quit
If you are a freelance writer, an online entrepreneur, an affiliate marketer or anyone who makes money on the internet, the only way you won’t make money is if you quit.
Once you earn 1 cent on the internet, you know you have what it takes to earn $1. After you earn $1 you know [...]
Another eHow Cleanup
Apparently eHow is still in the process of cleaning up their site. From what I can tell, this is the second round of article deletions.
This time around 11 of my articles were deleted. I agree with 10 of them, but the 11th one I can’t figure out why it was deleted nor will [...]
The Not So Bad Newbie Mistake
When I first starting playing around with web design and creating websites, I utilized free article sites like Ezine Articles and Article Database for content. At first I wrote 100% of my content. Then I started adding free articles so the ratio switched to 50-50.
Over time, I think the ratio changed a bit [...]
When Life Happens…
Recently we’ve been dealt a rather large dose of life. From time to time we all have to deal with things that are out of the ordinary. Sometimes the life doses are small and other times they’re large. This time life dealt us a biggie.
The wonderful thing about being a freelance writer [...]

The other day one of my readers asked about whether or not it was worth writing for Suite 101. Her question was more about time than money. Most folks want guaranteed payment up front for their hard work. Not to [...]
When Will They Ever Listen?
The other day as I was picking up after my kids and having a mental fuss fest in my head. I was wondering when will they ever listen? I try to impart information and wisdom to my kids to help them grow into responsible successful individuals. I wonder sometimes if my efforts are all in [...]

Using Google Analytics
I’m sooo confused.
Some time ago I added Google Analytics code on a few of my sites to get a better feel statistically on how they’re actually doing. Being the statistic watcher that I am, I thought “What the heck. It couldn’t hurt.” Well, no I don’t think it hurts, but it does confuse.
There is so [...]
And the Sourpuss Award Goes to…
I’ve been challenging myself to find articles everywhere. Whether I’m in the grocery store, walking around the lake or spending family time, everything and everyone is a potential article or blog post.
Imagine my surprise when unsolicited material for this blog landed in my lap. I couldn’t believe it. I’ve gotta share this [...]
eHow and the Minimum Wage
My eHow articles have finally surpassed the minimum wage mark. According to the Department of Labor , the current minimum wage is $6.55 an hour (this number will increase to $7.25 an hour effective 7/24/09) and I’ve finally surpassed that number with my eHow articles.
Here’s How I Figure It
It takes me about ½ hour to [...]
Even I have difficulty locating certain posts and comments on my blog. I find the Google search function helps me to find what I'm looking for. Maybe it will help you too.
