We’re not talkin’ “Daddy Warbucks” yet, but… One can hope, and you can help! –> My Songs and Books From the Rachel Maddow Show is a Chart Rocket!
My New Article Books and Songs from the Rachel Maddow Show is a “Chart Rocket”!!!!
Ok, folks, something really cool is going on — I have a chance at a real, honest to goodness, money-making article! Woot! Yeeeeeeeee haaawwwwwwww!!!!!!
Those who have followed my posts here know that a little over a year ago I lost my job as a librarian. Since that time I have been trying to switch from “unemployed” to “self-employed” and one of the ways I’ve been doing that is to write online articles over at Squidoo.
They say in the “writing business” that you should write what you are passionate about. For me that mainly means dance, which unfortunately is NOT just a huge “money making” topic for writing.
BUT… I do like books as well. And, I do like the Rachel Maddow Show. And I noticed something interesting the other day when I looked at the “Top 100” lenses at Squidoo….

You asked me a good question the other day on my Zazzle graphics tutorial. I finally got around to answering it in my usual long-winded fashion on my Squidoo blog, here:

Ok, ok, so she really isn’t blogging about ME… How-EV-UR! I did prompt an entire blog post by another blogger with my humble innocent question.. Woo Hoo! Yeeeee Haww! Uh-huh… [doing a happy dance at my computer while I type one-handed and make circles in the air with my fist with the other hand] I’d post a picture of this but I’m still on cup of coffee number one, I’d need three hands to be able to do all that and take the picture at the same time PLUS my hair is still in pre-shower stick out at all angles just got out of bed mode. Not. A. Pretty. Picture. But I digress… I do that a lot actually. Hmmm… Moving on… 😉
