UPDATE 12-14-09: Good news: I just got my Internet back up and running. Signed up for the Frontier 2010 ($20.10/mo. for a year) deal and now I'm good to go. Been writing like a beast. Just finished - and WON, might I add - NaNoWriMo 2009, and now I'm trying to complete the novel itself. I should be able to write a few articles here and there, though. Keeping very busy, that's for sure. Hope to have this thing done by April of next year so I can send it off for my free Create Space.com coupon for a free proof copy in book form of my novel. Head on over to my nanowrimo page link to see my profile. And while you're there, add me as a writing buddy.
Here's to many great things in 2010, regardless!

I'm new to the whole blogging/selling online experience, so please bear with me. I thought that, since I've been selling on ebay via Auctiva for the past month, it was time to commit to sharing the experience via blogging. In the beginning, when I first considered selling online, it was hard for me to start. I had always wanted to ever since I first bought my very own computer back in 2005, but I had also always been scared of the whole business side of things. I've had a nack for computers since high school, so that wasn't what frightened me. The main thing that held me back wasn't the qu...
