Last night I bought the domain name for the new site I mentioned previously on Selfish. I’m not going to tell you what it is just yet, not because it’s a secret but more because it’ll probably be another few weeks before I can do anything with it. And I’m not trying to build up [...]

I’m still busy reacquainting myself with what’s going on in my little circle of bloggy friends after my two month absence. A few days ago I headed over to see Jamie at ‘Blue Duck Copy – Professional SEO Writing Services‘ and saw an article that dragged me in. Not a surprise really as Jamie is [...]

My career choice as a Stay-at-home Dad is taking much more of my time this week so there’s less time for blogging and Twittering. That said, I still feel I have enough time to inflict my musical tastes on you. Here’s one I love from The Four Tops. And if you don’t like this song, [...]

Or play space invaders? I’m spending the weekend earning my fortune on eBay and it’s hard work so I thought I’d goof off for a while and play some arcade games. As far as I’m concerned, I can make money from home AND play games. I deserve a break. I’ve earned it. I’ve added a [...]

Today is a day not to be messing about or procrastinating. Today is a day for getting on with things and making things happen. What’s special about today? Nothing really, but I don’t want today to drift aimlessly into tomorrow. Today I have one goal. Just one. Today I’m going to get the house extra [...]

As I’ve mentioned before I’m going to continue to be a cheerleader for my bloggy friends and right now I feel the need to shout about the new project from David Pop Pulture Comics Wright and Sean Ghostwriter Platt. CollectiveInkwell is now live and I’ve been across there getting a heady dose of Writing – [...]

Since I wrote that I’m not really cut out to be a selfish blogger my mind has been in overdrive trying to find a way to be online without it taking over my life. Selfish Blogger is a great place for me to express some elements of my personality but it’s not really conducive to [...]
Yesterday when I told you about which side of the bed I sleep on and I also mentioned that I would love my own home office. I don’t think I’m being selfish in wanting a home office, it’s just that I find it hard to concentrate on anything at home with all the commotion that [...]
Marc, freelancer writer at Welsh Scribe tagged me with a meme. I have to declare 7 things you may not know about me. Here they are: I sleep on the left side of the bed but would happily sleep on the right My back garden annoys me. It’s too small and the heavy clay soil [...]
If you’re going to be a Rockstar you need ‘Rockstar Glasses’. You also need to get into the Rockstar mindset as early as possible, ideally before you reach school age when people start to crush your individuality in an effort to make you conform. These have to be the best pair of Rockstar Glasses I’ve [...]
Selfish Blogger dotcom isn’t really me. It doesn’t suit me and doesn’t reflect my true personality… and as an exercise in personal branding it’s something of a disaster. I’ve always believed that if you tell people something often enough they’ll start to believe it. The word selfish has a negative connotation and I don’t want [...]
I used to be part of a fine outfit by the name of Blog To Fit before I decided to abandon blogging and spend two months crying about it. I had some real regrets about leaving Dave and Tara to fend for themselves, but now I’m glad I’m out of it. Blog to Fit has [...]
