On the Brink.....

Ready. Set. Set. Set.......go? Now? No, now. No NOW. Wow! wow. oh. eh.

All I have to do is get my thoughts together and make this thing work. There are a number of brass rings in the air, or at least plastic rings and it is time for me to grab them. I actually know of a few job openings that I'd actually want. I've been invited to submit proposals on elance that in no way involve academic dishonesty or the exploitation of innocents. (Both practices I frown on.) Associated Content upgraded and are more integrated with Yahoo now, which means more available assignments, and I am actually able to find my article on Indie Movie Theatres in Minneapolis.

 I was finally able to cash out on Gather, after 3 months, and Helium is moving right along too. My eHow allowance remains consistent, eventhough I'm not writing anything new for them. There's even a tiny trickling on Suite 101. My Twitter follower numbers are respectable -- if only I could get followers for my blog.

Yes, I know, I need to be more consistent with it -- but maybe if I had guest bloggers a couple days a week...... hmmmm *she looks up at cartoon lightbulb suspended over her head.*

The other big thing I've started is revisiting the marketing of my novel, No Sensible People. I'm actually posting the whole thing, about 1000 words at a time on Associated Content. Serialization was a big thing way back when. Maybe it will make a comeback? Who knows? The only thing is they haven't updated page views for a few days, so I can't see how it's doing. That's the downside of upgrades, there's always an adjustment period. Supposedly they're going back in tonight. Maybe there will be answers then.

But I will not lose my mind looking for answers. There's always a simpler question to move on to. I can go back later, and maybe it will make sense.
