tonytiger,

good luck with the raffle! Your story about the projects is a great inspiration to me too. Putting it out there and letting the universe respond.


To all fellow challenge participants:

I'm visualizing more writing and editing projects, and am getting ready to advertise my SEO writing/editing services. Just bought the domain name BestSEOWriter.com ;-)

Nothing there yet, but there will be shortly.

Also getting ready to advertise salesletter or sales page writing services, which will hopefully bring in enough $ to cover mortgage, COBRA, etc. so I can build my life on freelance writing/copywriting/information marketing, just like I had hoped for.

And then my other "leg" which is quite new: coaching.

I've got a couple of clients already, and am visualizing several more who will want my help with making it through challenging and/or stressful times and turning them into stepping stones to get to their dreams.

I really like the balance of doing two completely different things. I love coaching, plus coaching won't require so much typing, but if I want to do a good job with the coaching, I can't do too much of it either (it does take quite a bit of energy), so doing that writng as well will give me the balance I need.

About my own numeric results so far:

I'm getting projects where there haven't been any before. I actually got so swamped I felt overwhelmed for a few days, but one page at a time, I made it to the other side.

Made more than a grand so far (lots and lots of writing, transcribing, translating (German to English), and the coaching (at introductory rates), so I've got less than 19 to go...

And one of the projects came in in an almost miraculous way. Actually all of them did. But that particular one: someone whose list I'm on mentioned that he was selling something to raise funds because a transcription project that he needed done was really expensive. So I sent him an offer and he wrote back, "Done" and I got the project, and even got the money right up front.

That was great. And it was an outstanding project to listen to while I was transcribing it too.

Yesterday also got a $20 refund check I had all but forgotten about ;-)

And I'm working on a project that will bring in a couple of thousand all by itself once it's done, with possibilities for more.

And someone bought my ebook on how to sell stuff on Amazon.com Marketplace just yesterday. In fact, I've sold more of that book in the last couple of weeks than I've ever sold of my other ebook that has been out since spring.

So something's been happening. And I'm visualizing more.

One thing I'd like to achieve is a way to bring in the money with a bit more ease. For a little while my hands actually started to hurt.

Thank you 3T, for getting us started with this experiment. Can't wait to see where the next $$$ will be coming from ;-)
