The Writers Manifesto Blog

This is a guest post by Thom Rigsby who blogs over at Life In The Internet and East of Huntsville which is his very own local news blog in his neck of the woods.

When I left my last full-time job to begin my work at home life, I had no idea what I was in for. Oh, I THOUGHT I knew… it would be great! Sleep till 9:00, slug around the house in my PJs and slippers sipping coffee, catch the morning news cycle, etc, etc. With the proliferation of work at home opportunities and record numbers of working adults opting to use their home as their office, why do so many struggle with how to do it? For me and many others that I’ve had the pleasure to talk with over the past six years, the problem comes down to treating it like a real job. So here are a few tips to help you do just that.

I found this cartoon rather fitting to the current situation. There is a certain irony attached to it and the question of link baiting arises?

Ok after weeks of hunting down the perfect word press theme for this site I have finally found what I want. I can honestly tell you that it wasn’t easy. I had a few pointers in mind and wanted to make sure that I had these covered. Besides that, I didn’t want a theme that every other Tom, Dick and Harry got. No offense, but I’m trying to set my blog’s theme apart from the masses. Kind of like branding..he he…

I’m writing this blog posts to help make as many people aware that there are currently fraudulent emails circulating the net claiming to be sent from Pay Pal. I received an email today stating that a particular amount had been deducted from my Pay Pal account through a purchase I have made on EBay. The thing is that I never bought anything that resembled the said transaction.

What made me aware of the fact that it could be a scam was the claimers supposed email account which was something at yahoo. The email was addressed to me from services@paypal.com which is clearly a fraud. I sent the fraudulent email directly on tho Pay Pal and they are currently investigating.

Well, I have been cruising high and low today on some great and very busy blogs. I was looking for a referal to the International Blogging Day. But I haven’t seen any mention of it anywhere. None of the top guns have even bothered to mention this either, so I’m taking a couple of guesses here.

Either the IBD is past history and only made it into 2 years previously or else..the time difference between countries might mean that others blog like crazy for the IBD when I’m blissfully unaware because I’m sleeping.

As Internet Marketers we spend many hours sitting at our desk glued to the screen in front of us, typing away furiously when a thought or idea has taken us into a creative area of our world that cannot and must not be interrupted at any cost. This process can take several minutes or it can drag out to several hours, depending on the size and depth of the project that we’re committed to and the volume of creative juices that are flowing through our system at the time.

Check out my make money post on todays idea. I admit I had nothing else to write, partly I wanted you to give me your opinion about that post. It isn’t really a money making idea. But then again it is. If you- like me are aiming to be financially independent, then you might want to read this particular post and leave feedback at the end.

If I don’t know what you need, then I cannot help you. I look forward to your comment.
