is there any hope for me..?
March 14th 2007 17:07
yes i am back again to rant about everything that catches my fancy. the reason i stayed away for some days was to just look at my life as a lonely writer and also the dismal numbers at my AdSense accounts.
every day i update my blogs, counting this one i have three, i write and write and hope for a reward but what the heck..Google does not think so or i guess my readers don't think so. i am stuck with few odds cents as earnings and yes, i have to be happy about it because there are many who don't even make that much
anyway after couple of days of meditation i realized that if i want to get somewhere with my writing "career" i have to ignore the earnings and keep writing. yes the realization came kind of late..i mean i am going to 26 pretty soon and still don't have a proper job and don't even get me started on retirement planning and health insurance.
i can see myself typing and hoping for better days for years to come

I'm learning it's good to mix up topics. I hate it when I find someone who I really, really like, who always comments on my blog, but they write about a single topic - and it's a topic to which I can't relate and often have no comments to offer. But the blogs that offer multiple topics draw me in, whether I know the blogger or not.
I've recently reduced rather than expanded. I decided that rather than spreading myself thin over multiple blogs with varying subjects, I'd make it easier for myself and pour my energies into one blog that contains a wide array of topics. Already I can feel a relief of pressure.
Writing is not a path that pays "well", unless you get lucky and land yourself a killer publishing deal or find consistent work with a particular company. When it comes to freelance, we nickel and dime it.
Don't give up.

My advice is to not even look at Adsence because it doesn't makeCents or Sence...
Just write, write, write and write about what you enjoy, love and cherish... others will soon be along who feel the same way, about the same things...
... in Orble there's more too, there's the added bonus of friendship and to me?
That makes all the sense in the world...
Good luck, I am always popping in here and there to vote on what I consider "good posts," my only regret is that I don't always have the time to comment ...

This?:
Don't worry about being 26. I'm 46. Worry about it in another ten years time when you're 36 or 38, if you haven't got anywhere financially ... and even then ... don't worry about it at all. Just go back to:
I'd print that out and paste it onto the top of my PC if I was you ...
