I have noticed how much people whine and complain about not getting stats lately. I won’t say anymore on this subject as you know who you are. If you did your homework well, you would know that stats go up and down at certain times. It’s a natural flow in our daily lives. Networking is a process of connecting to others and promoting your blog. It lets others know you are out there. Truth is, I am guilty of this insane habit too. I go through my email everyday, networking to create responses and overflow to people in the blogging world. Sometimes, I have so much clutter in my email that I quickly glance at the posts, deleting unnecessary ones or uninterested (boring) ones. I

This article related to last week’s posting of It’s A Pain In The —-!. Before you answer the question, consider there maybe a difference of opinion among people. The trend of an open mind through society’s pressures can only be replaced with ‘caution’ for one’s own protection. Personal experience, maybe? In our culture today, it may be more doable to use discrimination. You can’t be too careful these days with all the scams and misleading advertisements in the social media. Recently, I came across an article in the local newspaper relating to natural, homeopathic

Hi guys, I’ve been under the weather a little lately. Nobody likes a depressing post, including me. Yesterday, I didn’t receive a very good report. I went to my regular neurologist yesterday morning. The doctor advised that the autoimmune (Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome) illness is worsening. He prescribed a new medication used to improve muscle strength in patients with a certain muscular disease (Myasthenia Gravis). It helps with neuro-transmitters to improve strength and to feel better in general. He also increased frequently of IV-G infusions to monthly again.

Finally, after a minute or so, it stopped. She looked down at the monitor. It read 170/103 – too high and at a critical point. She pulled the pressure cup off her arm and placed the monitor on the bench beside the bed. She looked up at me and stated, “I don’t have time to die today.”

It clearly matters whether or not you have a good marketing consultant. A marketing consultant can either make or break you, especially on self-published books. Though the phone calls can sometimes get continuous, I find that marketing consultants have the techniques in selling your product. My publisher sets authors up with marketing consultants once their books are published. While I was thrown off at first, I find the frequent updates to be beneficial for selling books. I don’t always agree with the processing fees and costs, but I understand that they have to make a living too. I believe I have a good marketing consultant as he says, “Your success is my success.” Some information I found useful after going through this several times is:
