Not So Prepared for a Portable Office

Not So Prepared for a Portable Office
14 Jul 2010

Writing One of the great things about being a writer; online or in print, is that your office can be anywhere you want it to be. This has always been a major appeal to me and part of my “someday” plans. But what do you do when someday gets here and you haven’t really planned? It’s a whole new comfort zone to step out of for some. I can’t promise you I will share great insights in this post, because I’m pretty much ...

Follow Up on The Learning Curve

Follow Up on The Learning Curve
09 Jul 2010

Blogging In my recent article The Learning Curve, the readers left some great comments and concerns. I had replied to them, but since the comment was full of links, I think the Spam machine caught it and was not published. But that’s okay. I get to use it as a post and hopefully shed some light on some of the concerns as a follow up. I appreciate everyone who stopped by and left comments. You can read those at the link above. These were my ...

Using Spam to Your Advantage

Using Spam to Your Advantage
07 Jul 2010

Blogging Don’t you love it when your inbox gets crammed full of spam mail? All you did was sign up for one measly special report and within a week you’ve been sent ten emails from the site you signed up with. Most people will unsubscribe immediately after receiving the free report, some people will simply hit the delete button for a few days because they’re strapped for time, and yet others will let it accumulate because they’ve ...

It’s My Day Off

It’s My Day Off
02 Jul 2010

Blogging Sometimes we’re completely oblivious to what’s going on–either around us or with our own selves. This happened to me yesterday; Monday to be exact, since by the time you read this, it’ll be days later. I spent about 10 hours at the computer. I don’t recommend that very often. But as I mentioned in an earlier post, The Learning Curve, I spent most of the time weeding through Aweber (I don’t have any awesome ...

The Learning Curve

The Learning Curve
30 Jun 2010

Blogging So you’ve decided to build/create the next great blog. You’ve gotten several ebooks from the Big Guys giving you their step-by-step instructions on how to create a successful money making blog. You’re all set, right? Well, probably not. The one thing I’ve found to be lacking in these blogs is the mention of a learning curve. I’ve read my share of blog building ebooks from the experts. The information is invaluable, ...

Blogging Tips Archives and Link Love
25 Jun 2010

Blogging I’m sitting here having one of those moments; close approaching deadline, million things on my mind, deer in headlights syndrome. You can call it whatever you like, but the truth is I don’t have a topic for today. So, I decided to read some blog posts that were backing up in my inbox. Fellow contributor here at Blogging Tips, Sharon Hurley Hall, almost had the answer in her post 10 Ways to Break Through Freelance Writer’s ...

Learn Out Loud!

Learn Out Loud!
24 Jun 2010

Writing Have you ever noticed how music affects you? I listen to a pretty wide range of music, mostly older melodic heavy metal, but I also love classical music, good piano music, and I enjoy a good symphonic piece. However, I do not listen to rap music or country music. Rap music is degrading, not only to women, but to humans in general. You can’t be positive when garbage is being pumped into your mind. I don’t listen to country because ...

The Jackrabbit Factor

The Jackrabbit Factor
21 Jun 2010

Blogging Last week I shared some tips on Are you Plugged In? I often go through periods that I don’t plug in. I always regret it. Sometimes, getting back on track requires me to share these things with others. It motivates and inspires me when I can help someone else get plugged in. I have literally hundreds of motivational and inspirational ebooks and mp3′s on my computer–well, between two computers actually. I could listen to or read ...

Are you Plugged In?

Are you Plugged In?
19 Jun 2010

Writing Are you plugged in? I don’t mean social media here, I mean plugged into some kind of training or motivational speakers to get and keep you hyped up? Building a web presence can be a lonely undertaking. You can and will lose steam if you don’t stay pumped up about your business and keep plugging in to some great motivational speakers and business training. You can be plugged into social media and communicating with other like minded ...

Using PLR in a Pinch

Using PLR in a Pinch
16 Jun 2010

Writing In some circles the reference to PLR articles (Private Label Rights) is very taboo; using them is frowned upon even worse. There’s good reason for this; most of them suck, are written poorly and distributed to thousands of users. But there are a few places that have been around for several years and deliver quality work. If you’re running short on time or cash and can’t afford to hire a writer in a pinch; PLR can be very useful ...
