January Musings

Well, I must say, January slipped by in a wink. The month was spent optimizing and restructuring my sites.

So many of us are trying to regroup in the wake of Panda and, with a new year in front of us, assessing what to do to continue to forge ahead online.

Moved Bedbug Books Back to Blogger
I moved Bedbug Books back to Blogger and am so pleased I did so. The new Blogger templates/features have made Blogger far more competitive in my books and the "new" site has received lots of views in the two weeks its been up and running. Quite the undertaking to move all but worth it from the look of things. I created a Store Page on a static page and I've installed PayPal and Buy Now buttons.

Write and Earn a Living Job Board & New Facebook Page
I added feeds to the left sidebar to help readers who are trying to scare up writing jobs and I created a Write and Earn a Living Facebook Page, where I post daily tips, job leads, and links to applicable writing resources for those trying to earn a living online. It's incredibly handy to have pages at Facebook for quick updates, which would not necessarily be long enough to post here. With this site synced to post to the Facebook page, everything is interrelated.

And On the Home Front . . .
The drywall dust is settling around here and I'm relieved to finally have the old landing sealed so that no more heat escapes up to the attic. The house feels much warmer in the aftermath. Between writing, I'm trying to seal up any cold spots--a project I've been working on for the last couple of years.

I'm hoping spring will come early to this corner of Canada!
