My life

Sales It seems that selling books and working is all that happens to me. Sold some strange books. One on princess Grace of Monaco. Couldn’t believe anyone would be interested but there you go. The Follyfoot books sold as I thought, because it’s a timeless children’s interest, and parents must buy the kids the DVD’s. I knew Band of Brothers would sell. Joined Critters.org, only to find that I’m still on it through my Yahoo account, which I don’t bother with and has emails backed up in the... Sign in to see full entry.

If only Ebay has picked up to the point where you wish this was your job. If I could make this amount of money every day my troubles would be over. But of course the lows outweigh the highs. I must admit that I’m excited about the idea of trying to get the novel going again. The Literacy agency I once used turned out to be a con man who has done so much damage that there is even a support group dedicated to those trying to get over it! But I have been promising myself this dream of getting... Sign in to see full entry.

Books and success! Just watched J K Rowling and the Harry Potter saga on TV. I wish her all the best as she seems like a lost soul in a work she does not understand and has no control over. Maybe a little mad in the first place, she could not handle the success of a Mills and Boon book let alone this. But I think she had just turned off from it. Which brings me to an old chestnut plucked form the fire. What if I tried to get my books published? Now I have sweated a lot of blood on this, and... Sign in to see full entry.

Arialas’ Idea One of the top writers on Blogit, has shared with us how she makes a living from writing. I’ve bleated on about this before and don’t want to waste time on it now. But Associated Content means you have to write on their boring subjects. I wanted to pick my own subject and wanted it to be on something I’m working on. So I came up with the idea of writing a blog on what you would spend your lottery winning on. It had to read like a fantasy I was experiencing. All the books tell you... Sign in to see full entry.

Ever wondered? Have you ever had one of those awful jobs where you can’t wait to leave? Well I have the dilemma of facing such a task. Only I want to leave something behind, something for my friends, and I do have a few there. Let me explain. I had to work with a boy who was a real pain in the ass! I mean he was simple minded but didn’t know it. So he was filled with a sense that he was somehow superior to everyone else. You could have no sympathy for this one. Now I will stand for the 3 card... Sign in to see full entry.

Long days short nights Few entries at the moment as I’m having to do early starts 5 am to 2pm. So not much incentive to do write much of anything. Sad news from Pakistan about Butto. Sure she was corrupt, but she was a link with the western world. On a better note, my lottery scheme is shaping up. Some good ideas. Positive thinking. Want to get a site together about people who win the money and how they spend it. If that isn’t positve enough I don’t know what is. Weather too mild for mid... Sign in to see full entry.

Next Generation? I wonder what the next generation of computer and broadband will hold? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/default.stm In all honesty I think we are up to speed with what we want. The next step would be to make it the net like an interactive TV set, with people being able to talk to each other as if on a screen. At present internet phones and cams are too slow and lagging, so to make the quality better is an obvious next step. But what then? We might want a sharpness on a... Sign in to see full entry.

The Big Day! With Christmas coming up a supermarket is the worst place in the world to be right now(apart from being trapped in a minefield under sniper fire). As much as I want to leave the place it is pointless until we get the holiday over with, as no one wants to know. Employers can’t be bothered to take an interest in you as they are thinking of themselves too much. So the place goes on. I had to go in on my “Day off” yesterday to help out as two other people phoned in sick. I’ll get... Sign in to see full entry.

Ebay-blog! I see even Ebay has got on the band wagon and started giving people space for blogs. Might be some mileage in posting there as you can use it as a frame for the stuff you are selling. Brief note as its been a long day, and Heroes is on at 9. Weather wet but mild. Steve UK. Sign in to see full entry.

Facebook! I was wondering how Blogit shaped up compared to new social sites like Face book and bebo? I know all about Myspace, as I’ve looked at it from the points of view from money making to programming and the occult. Basically it’s a waste of time. You will trawl through hours of rubbish with nothing to show for it. But I wonder if new sites like Facebook are any better? The little I’ve dabbled with it, it seems to be little of substance. So why do people bleat on about it so much? Maybe... Sign in to see full entry.
