I am a teacher, stopped teaching because my hubby retired, and we moved to the beach! I when I joined WA I KNEW I could learn how to do this and felt that it would be perfect for me to still earn money but be free to enjoy hubby's retirement.
I love to knit, read and be outdoors, garden and sit on the beach and read!
I have been at this since July 2009 and have gradually put most of the pieces together. I find that a healthy mixture of reading enough to get the picture and then practicing and trying to do it, then going back and re-reading to help fine tune is working.
My biggest piece of learning here is to avoid putting all the eggs in one basket. Aim for multiple streams of income.
My biggest challenge has been keeping up with the tech stuff that has not really been a part of my life, so all the social media and google plus etc throw me. I know I can learn it, I just need to make the time to study it more.
I would never have survived this journey long without a couple of loyal buddies on here at WA, ready to give advice and help every step of the way.

Don't feel bad. A couple of days ago I had a problem article, they claimed I had used company names and evidently I shouldn't have. The "companies" were California and Canada in reference to population! I didn't realize I lived in a company! Always thought of it as a country. Oh, well.

If Ezine is slow for you, then I guess you must just be getting started. As soon as you get platinum, it speeds right up. I put a couple in last Friday and they were approved on SUNDAY of all things. If you need a few suggestions with EZA, just ask. I'll be happy to help.

Bad timing on my part. I submitted my first ten like you suggested to me last summer, some were just on any old thing, just at the same time the 100day thing got started. So now I am in limbo. 9 live articles, one problem one and they are not getting back to me on how to fix it. I have three requests in! They suggested it was a minor thing. So I wait. I know it will be worth the wait once i get upgraded and can submit more articles.
I did finish my first website though!

Hi Sue:
I have nothing to do with the member rank numbers, maybe K&C can explain that to you. Maybe it has something to do with them picking me as one of the beta testers for the new platinum, don't really know. And as for all the buddies, when I checked in a few days ago, all the requests were waiting for me, so....
Tell me, I'm really curious to know where this beach is you are at. I'm a beach freak too...and a gardener...and retired...and a knitter...bet that one fooled you!

Kand C have some algorithm based on what you do in WA--who knows!
I live in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware today was a beautiful day here. I do not live on the ocean, but on the Bay which was created after some hurricane many many years ago broke through the coast line. We go walking over at the beach a few days a week. My favorite thing is to sit on the beach and read. 2nd is to brave the elements when a nor'easter comes by wild wild surf!
My dad was a weaver-- used a loom it helped with his arthritis! I met some other male type who knits I find it relaxing, but I only do it in the winter. I have an idea to make vests with cusotmized designs on the front-- and sell them-- but we shall see I have to learn thei WA stuff first. I am getting there--keep getting bogged down in details, ad EZINE BEING SO SLOW right now during their 100 day thing.
So I am balancing enjoying the beach life and learning this stuff! I set up on my porch overlooking the water and work away!
