Gotta Figure This All Out

The pressures of not posting a message since March 9 have finally gotten the better of me. Being such a newbie to all of this, I'm not sure how to organize and schedule all of the new information areas I've created for myself.

Five days ago, I created my Facebook page. Went on www.swagbucks.com to do a few searches and win my daily swagbucks and when I searched my brother's name lo and behold he was on Facebook and he was in touch with my cousin Theresa in Indiana. Except for the usual "Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a Blessed New Year" Christmas cards, I haven't spoken with her in years.(This year I didn't even send Christmas cards beyond my parents and my inlaws and you know what? Nothing bad happened. That I know of. I visualize friends and family angry and sad because I must have cut them from my list. Yeah, right. No one noticed or cared.)

I'm in the process of creating a web page for my writing. I am in the writer's program called, "Breaking into Print" with the Long Ridge Writer's Group. I have learned great things in the first four months of the program and will be submitting articles for publication in the next two months. This is what I've always needed. Just a little push.

I read an article in this month's "The Writer" about a guy who sold 100 articles in the first seven months of submissions. If I could do 2/3 of that I could quit my day job. He had a great way of increasing his salable material and was not a shoe-in as an expert in most of the subject areas he sold.

Today in the paper I read about a few men who have quit their day jobs and have earned about $10k per month through ads on their finance-focused blog pages. I'd like to do something like that with a blog page but it would have to be something with a big draw. Something on spiritual lessons, growing with your kids, recovery from being a control freak....I'm not sure.

Signing off for now to have more meditative time to ponder this idea......

Thanks for reading this....(the few who made it to the end might appreciate that I appreciate them. LOL!)
