Muddling By – Second Draft Finished
“Ah.” And you can quote me on that. Today, April 16, 2025, I finished the second draft of my next book. Let me scroll back to see what I called it last time. Muddling By, a working title. Also known as “From Middle Class to Millionaire to (mostly) Muddling By” or “A Rollercoaster Ride Through…

Care
Care. Care what you write about. I care about writing this, and I won’t apologize to everyone who doesn’t care I wrote it. Writing about what you care about seems so simple. Why else write? (Unless you’re getting paid and you need the money.) But also be careful. It is April 2025. I do not…

Muddling By – Second Draft Begun
I almost titled this post Justifiably Reprimanded, but that can apply to anything. More correctly (Almost) Justifiably Reprimanded was possible, but too many syllables.

Amazon Author Page And Central
(written while tired. my apology, but intuition suggested I publish it soonest.) I pass this along because it is cheap and relatively easy. Amazon has two websites that I use: Amazon Author page and Amazon Author Central. Note: I use them. They are useful, but not very useful. But they are free and informative. And…

Dream. Invest. Live. – A Sequel
Dream. Invest. Live. That’s the book about personal finance that I published; let’s see, Amazon says November 26, 2008. It’s time for a sequel, especially considering everything that’s happened since then. The writing has begun. Here’s a bit of why and how I’m about to devote time in the next year or so to writing…

Popular Posts 2024
Someone else had the idea for this blog. Thanks for the inspiration. They reasoned that I did so much writing that my writing deserved its own blog. I didn’t doubt that I’d find something to write about writing. I write. It works that way. Looking at the top ten posts from 2024 points out that…
