Ooh, ooh!! Ultra excited here!! My Flip camera arrived and I put it to use! After trying to mess around with my pricey HD cameras with no luck (okay, so perhaps some of the issue is operator error...I'll take some blame here...) I picked up a great deal on a Flip and you know what? I ...

8 Twitter Tips For Promoting Your Ebook

In my free "Work At Home Marketing That Doesn't Suck" ebook, I mention social media and even more importantly - Twitter. I know not everyone is into Twitter. In fact, I've received some email asking me if Twitter is really worth the time and effort. And while I am no expert ...

My Ebook Pet Peeve
