I am taking Jared's suggestion and writing in the special OT code. It makes me feel special.

Please note that the following is whiny and irritating. You have been warned.

I am tired. It is nearly 2 am and I am writing for a client. Well, I have been writing, but now I have to get some sleep. I have kids to homeschool in a few hours.

I need to automate my business more. I know I do. Ghostwriting is fun and I love the $$$, but I can't keep doing this.

I have some websites up and running (blogs) and they are bringing in $$$, but I am really debating on starting a new blog with an idea that I have already purchased a domain name and everything. I think it will be a big moneymaker, but I am still hesitating because of the niche.

I don't know. I just don't know if I should launch it, and I really feel like an idiot for debating it. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!!!!

I have been so good at being decisive and making decent decisions with my biz. This second-guessing is driving me bonkers.

Thanks for letting me whine. I feel better.

    Shay, I see you have reached your plateau, didn't I tell you this would happen?

    Unless you have a human clone machine lying around, you can't keep doing this. (sure you could hire people & outsource, but you would still have a lot of quality control work to do)

    You need to automate.

    Here's one simple way to automate your writing: Write packs of PLR articles, and sell them over and over again, instead of just once for one client. Rinse, repeat.

    and you are hesitating... why?

    P.S. I forgot at the moment what your Fun site was again, PM me the url. I've got a Fun one I'm working on that I think will make more money than all of my 'Serious' site combined... going to send you a PM right now.

      I am working towards that. I just can't keep this pace going.

    Shay, I just want to say that you are a real trouper. You lasted much longer than anyone I know. Even me :-) I got worn out a long time ago, maybe about 5 months into it. Now, I don't even want to see another article in my lifetime. I've moved on to sales copy, which I love.

    If you like to write, you may want to look into that. The pay is much better than writing articles and you can easily make a living off of writing only 4 sales letter a month instead of $400 articles. :-) If writing is your passion and I'm sure you don't want to give it up you may want to look into it a bit further.

            Isn't it fun? It is really stupid that grown people could have this much fun doing something so stupid, but I love it.

      Jared, if you get banned, I will be ticked.

      Plus, that stupid infraction is still there.

      And you haven't answered my latest PMs.

        Shay, Don't worry, I will try and be a good boy... I learned my lesson the last time I was banned for a week. I served my time, and I came out a reformed man.

        As for your infraction, (it's kind of like a tattoo... it lasts a lifetime lol) Well Shay, all you have to do is give me an infraction for not replying to your PM's sooner... I've insulted you by this haven't I? C'mon... gimme one... I'm due for an infraction... please?
