While performing in Kanasas City Demi Lovato accidentally pulled what looks like to be a clip in hair extension. Yikes! Her reaction was professional all the way.
Demi kept on singing and dancing like nothing had happened. In fact, if you aren't looking closely you may just miss it all together. You can scrub over to around the 00:47 mark to check out her swinging her weave back and forth.
The first rule of using clip in hair extensions is to have a sense of humor. These things from happen time to time. If something like this happens to you, discreetly grab up your hair and put in your purse. Don't make a big deal about.
The truth is, if your hair looks as good as Demi Lovato's hair does everyone will quickly forget the secret behind the magic.

matt found an early-development screen shot from the PS3 game, Journey
Box Seats was shocked today to hear not only that they were the stars of a Japanese Dating Simulation Game, but also that the game is selling like hot-cakes. Surprise struck again when they attempted to get money from the creators of Kissu x Kissu Box Seats!!! when they were shown a signed release from troupe member Matt Buchholtz.
According to the game developer, Buchholtz signed away the rights during an autograph session at Pacific Media Expo, during the hustle and bustle. "All I had to do was tell him I wanted the autograph on the line." said game producer, Ichigo Uzimaki.
The game has been described as a "masterpiece of the genre" placing the protagonist in a new job at Box Seat's production studios. By choosing different dialog options, fun romantic activities open up, including trips to the arcade, eating thai food, going to the mall, and more.
"In one of the dating scenarios with 'Benimaru,' he actually said something I said on a date last night," said Lepley. "It kind of freaked me out." Game developers swear that the responses are based off of a revolutionary dialog programming algorithm, and not from listening devices planted in the boys' apartments.
Kissu x Kissu Box Seats!!! is Rated M for tentacle rape.

Black Tea by Upton Tea Imports
Well-twisted leaves with golden tips, producing a liquor that has the character of a non-smoky Keemun. The Burgundy-like flavor notes end with a sweet, clean finish.
Origin: China
Backlogging tea of the morning….. (SRP #46)
I really do like this one. I almost bought without sampling just because many of those who like similar teas than me are fans of this one. But then I remembered that I had many versions of a good basic black tea in my cupboard at this time. So I opted for a sample to see if it would be good for purchasing at a later date.
For those who are not fans of the smokey notes in Keemun, this one is for you. Lightly chocolatey, malty, a hint of caramel, and a light bit of bite at the front of the sip to make it interesting. I do think it is worthy of having a place in my cupboard, but I need to pare down the stash of good basic blacks for a little while longer. It is going on the list.
Usual teapot method. Lightly sweetened.
On weekends at home I fall into an unfortunate habit of overcaffeinating myself. That's the inevitable result when a lover of "hard-core black teas" [tm SimplyJenW] is close to the kitchen all day and repeatedly thinks, "You know what would be great now? A(nother) pot of tea!"
I just brewed my third pot of the day. I ended up second-guessing my choices for Pots 1 and 2 — which involved four different Ceylons, as it happens — but I know that won't happen with Pot 3, good old Organic China Black FOP. Rich and mellow, a little cocoa, a little vanilla, and nothing I could possibly regret … well, except for the extra dose of caffeine.
I'm sure you will too, Jen! Don't expect any fireworks; this one is just my very good tea friend that never lets me down. :-)
Jacqueline, I got my current bag of it less than three weeks ago, and it appears to be in stock on the website, which they are good about keeping up to date.
Oh – one more thing! Do you have a favorite ceylon from Upton that you think might be good for classic iced tea?
My favorite overall is the Kenilworth Estate OP (the "biscuity" one), but I think the Dimbula BOP might be a better choice for iced tea.
Many thanks to Lady Londonderry for this tea!!!!!
I had a wee bit of this before with Rose Scented, but this morning is the first time I'm tasting its true character.
It's really nice! Wine-y, a sweetness – I'm getting that pastry cinnamony flavor I get with some teas – but it's a little thin. I think I was wimpy with the leaves. I also let it brew a little longer than I usually do (5 min) and I'm getting the teeniest bit of astringency.
I need to make this again with a bit more leaves, and stop the steeping at 4 minutes. If I can preserve the pastry notes – mmmm! This would be a super bargain, and it's organic to boot! I could see this as being a wonderful everyday drinker!
Oh! And before I forget – completely unrelated to tea – I have another guest post at the blog I wrote the Bronte tea post at. This one is about John Adams and…mushrumps!
I had a feeling you would like this one! And do try it with a pinch of the Keemun Mao Feng sometime; they blend together beautifully.
P.S. I enjoyed your post and the recipe! I agree that sherry is wonderful in soups. My favorite lentil soup recipe (tomato-based) calls for a quarter cup of dry sherry added at the very end, and that addition gives it a certain je ne sais quoi.
Mushrumps it is, from here on out! We dined at The King's Arms tavern in Colonial Williamsburg, and loved that the waiter gave us a great lecture on the foods and why they were served as they were, what the colonials would have cooked and how. I also LOVE their ingenuity – folding tables, hidden drawers, convertible furniture! What a time!
any chance the vendor is likely to disclose where the tea actually comes from in China or what varietal leaf it comes from? China BOP sounds like a generic mix or a low grade tea that they are blending for profile….but I bet it makes great cold steeped iced tea
I assume it's a blend, and Upton lists it in the category "Other Congou," to distinguish it from the Keemuns. Full description:
"Well-twisted leaves with golden tips, producing a liquor that has the character of a non-smoky Keemun. The Burgundy-like flavor notes end with a sweet, clean finish."
Don't dismiss it on the basis of the generic-sounding name; this one is well worth trying. It is a staple in my cupboard.
I dont' dismiss the tea I question the nature of those who would keep us from truly appreciate its origins….golden tips is usually an indication of the 'dayeh' varitetial of camillia sinesis sinesis….though not always…..'congou' means 'finely crafted' …
Kashyap All of my dealings with Upton have been very good. I'm sure if you asked, they would be forthcoming with more information. I don't think they are trying to hide anything – I see them more as no nonsense New Englanders :)
I love a single source tea, but blends have their place as every day drinkers for me. I really like this one, Queen Catherine from Harney, etc. I work at an art school and take classes too – I can't drink $24 a tin Keemun Mao Feng every day (although I'd like to. I dream about it every day to tell you the truth!)
The aroma is sweet and light, somewhat of apricot. The liquor is medium-colored and has a notably clean taste, that of archetypal "black tea". It has no astringency, mild sweetness, and a nice body. Not a complex tea, but not boring.

Giants hold on for thrilling 29-24 win over Cowboys
ARLINGTON, Texas – John Mara seemed to be going in every direction but the one he wanted, scrambling for some semblance of calm near the entrance of the visitors' locker room of Cowboys Stadium.
Workers were hastily rolling large skids of football equipment to idling buses outside following Sunday's 29-24 victory over the Cowboys, several nearly clipping Mara as he tried to regain his composure after one of the most emotionally draining regular-season finishes in franchise history.
In one moment, the Giants' team president and co-owner was left incredulous.
Somehow Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant got behind the secondary and caught a 37-yard pass from Tony Romo that initially was ruled a go-ahead touchdown.
A crowd of 94,067 erupted and Mara figured Big Blue's fate was sealed.
Disbelieve and exasperation followed as the Giants were able to survive and leave here with a riveting triumph for the second consecutive season thanks to the fortunate placement of a hand, this time by virtue of instant replay.
Last year it was the left hand of Jason Pierre-Paul that blocked a last-second field goal to preserve the win. This time it was Bryant's right hand on a potential game-winning touchdown with 10 seconds remaining that allowed the Giants to survive. Bryant initially was granted the scoring reception with Corey Webster and Michael Coe in coverage in the back of the end zone, setting off a raucous celebration. But after review, officials correctly ruled that, although Bryant made the catch, his right hand touched out of bounds before he could establish possession in the field of play.
"Incomplete pass. Long foul ball. It's over. The Giants win. Going home," Webster said. "You know hit those balls at the park and they go the other side of the little yellow pole? It looked like a home run, but he's gotta stay up there and keep batting."
The Cowboys (3-4) had three more chances as Romo completed a pass to Jason Witten, then misfired inside the 5 to Garfield native Miles Austin, off his fingertips. That left one second on the clock and, after a timeout, Romo threw out of the back of the end zone intended for Austin as time expired.
Of course, all of the postgame attention went back to Bryant and the play that nearly devastated the Giants before providing them with reason to exhale.

My 12-year-old electric craftsman chain saw has finally died for the final time. So I purchased this one to replace it. Bad mistake! After 30 minutes of accumulated use during the day. The following items were noted.
1. Chain falls off drive gear about once every 10 minutes of use. Seems any contamination that gets inside will derail the unit.
2. The no tools adjustment for chain tension is of no value. It loosens up during cutting from vibrations.
3. 7 out of every 10 times you try to start the unit, the chain only sits there while the motor in running full tilt.
4. While cutting branches of at least 1-inch thickness, the chain will just stop while the motor screams on.
5. The chain saw is so over engineered for safety that it is dangerous. The chain break is useless.
I had neighbors come over and try out my new saw. Everyone was disappointed. All reported that the unit was a piece of junk.
We tried every combination of chain slack and chain tension to try and correct the problems encountered.
Nothing seems to work at all.
I have used chain saws, manual saws, power and non-power tools for over 50 years. This is by far the worst device I have found to date.

This saw can handle most cuts the average homeowner will run into. I have used it to cut "volunteer" trees and shrubs along fence-lines on my property. Each decade I purchase a replacement like the last because they are effective and cost efficient.

Safety features are very good and for around the yard (within cord length) beats cranking up the gas chainsaw. We are in "tree city" Gainesville, FL and of have trees damaged by winds on a regular basis. I can help neighbors and friends with ease. Thank you!

I own a good "real" chainsaw, but this was ideal for dealing with a 12" diameter oak that came down in a storm. I had previously tried using a cheap chainsaw from a big box hardware chain as a backup saw. That didn't work out for tasks much smaller than this oak.

David Fincher behind the scenes
Cinematographer Jeff Cronenweth, A.S.C. told Jim Jannard:
"To say that RED and the new Mysterium-X Sensor is impressive is tantamount to saying that Napalm is a little itchy. The sensor's increased resolution is an obvious bonus but the expanded latitude especially at the high end and the dynamic color range makes this camera a tremendous asset to any cinematographer's arsenal. The Mysterium-X's amazing ability to handle both mixed color temperatures and low light situations affords us exciting opportunities to push the boundaries of our craft."
By the way, the film made the owner of RED to join Facebook.
Fincher made his feature film debut in 1992 with Alien3. In 1995, he directed Se7en, the lauded crime drama starring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman. The film grossed more than $325 million worldwide. In 1997, Fincher directed The Game, starring Michael Douglas and Sean Penn.
In 1999, he re-teamed with Brad Pitt on Fight Club, based on Chuck Palahniuk's novel. In 2002, he directed Panic Room, starring Jodie Foster, Forest Whitaker, Dwight Yoakum and Jared Leto. In 2007, he directed the critically hailed film Zodiac. The film was named to over 150 ten-best lists, including those of Entertainment Weekly, USA Today and The Washington Post.
His most recent film is The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which once again re-teamed Fincher with star Brad Pitt. The film also starred Cate Blanchett. The film was nominated for 13 Academy Awards®, including for Best Picture and Best Director, and won three (Art Direction, Makeup, and Visual Effects). The film was also honored with five Golden Globe nominations, including Best Picture - Drama and Best Director and won two awards, including Best Director, from the National Board of Review.
He is currently in production on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (also on RED), an adaptation of the bestselling novel by Stieg Larsson, starring Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara.

Risky Business
As of May 20, 2010
Most traders will shrug off the analogy between investing and spinning the roulette wheel. After all, isn't investing all about making money while minimizing the risks? But occasionally, investors need to take some risks in order to avoid other ones. "Sometimes the biggest risk you can have in your portfolio is not having enough risk," says Chris Konstantinos, a portfolio risk manager at Riverfront Investment Group, a Virginia-based advisory firm. Investors looking to spice up their portfolios have a number of options. With that in mind, here are seven funds for gamblers. All offer the chance for big swings, albeit occasionally in the wrong direction. As a result, they're best employed as part of a highly diversified portfolio.

text: News End of an Era 23 February 2012 By Robin James A shop that turned rebellion into mainstream is shutting its doors following a successful sale by Graves Jenkins. Rag Freak in Cranbourne Street, Brighton first opened its doors back in 1969 and initially sold teddy boy and mod gear. In more recent years, the shop focussed on hard core punk, metal and skinhead clothes and accesories and as a result attracted clients from all parts of the country. Antoinette St Clair- Winston, the manager of Rag Freak, who has been at the shop since it opened, commented, " the shop has been an institution in Brighton, although it was regarded as an outsider when the business started ." Ms St Clair- Winston went on to say " We are very much a Marmite shop – people either love us or hate us. However, since we announced the closure, we have had people coming in everyday asking us not to go. We didn't realise we were so loved. " The good news is that the new owner has promised to keep the Union Jack on the front of the newsagents store, considered too much of a landmark to change. GJ were seeking offers on the asking price of £750,000 for the property, which comprised a shop with basement, together with a 2 bedroom self-contained maisonette on the upper floors. Several expressions of interest were received and a deal very close to the asking price was achieved. " It is always sad to see an institution leave the city, but the fact that we were able to make a quick sale is testament to the popularity of the area " commented Robin James.

Richard Nixon: The gushy, romantic side of 'Tricky Dick' (+video)
Richard Nixon's love letters to Patricia Ryan showed a romantic young man. The letters from 1938, reveal Nixon, the 37th US president, as idealistic, poetic.
Yorba Linda, Calif.
Long before Richard Nixon rose to power and fell from grace, he was just another man in love.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
Decades before he became known to some as "Tricky Dick," Nixon was the one penning nicknames (sweet ones) to his future bride in gushy love notes that reveal a surprisingly soft and romantic side of the man taken down by Watergate.
Nixon shared the stage with Patricia Ryan in a community theater production and six of the dozens of letters they exchanged during their two-year courtship will be unveiled Friday at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum as part of an exhibit celebrating the 100th birthday of the woman Nixon playfully called his "Irish gypsy."
RECOMMENDED: How well do you know US presidents? Take the quiz
In Nixon's letters, he recalls their first meeting in flowery prose, daydreams about their future together and waxes poetic about the first time his "dearest heart" agreed to take a drive with him.
"Every day and every night I want to see you and be with you. Yet I have no feeling of selfish ownership or jealousy," he writes in one undated letter. "Let's go for a long ride Sunday; let's go to the mountains weekends; let's read books in front of fires; most of all, let's really grow together and find the happiness we know is ours."
Eighteen years after his death, the correspondence offers a tiny window into a fiercely private side of Nixon that almost no one ever saw and represents a love letter of sorts to fans of the 37th U.S. president, who were infuriated when the National Archives took over the museum and overhauled it to include a detailed chronicle of Watergate.
"These letters are fabulous. It's a totally different person from the Watergate tapes that people know. President Nixon started out as an idealistic young man ready to conquer the world and with Pat Ryan he knew he could do it. There's a lot of hope, there's a lot of tenderness and it's very poetic," said Olivia Anastasiadis, supervisory museum curator.
"He loved her, he was absolutely enthralled by her and that's all he thought about."
The letters stand in stark contrast to the grim-faced leader forced to resign in 1974, disgraced.
Instead, Nixon comes across as an ardent and persistent suitor in the letters, which date from 1938 to just before the couple's marriage in June 1940.
The two met while auditioning for "The Dark Tower" in the Southern California town of Whittier and dated for two years until Nixon proposed to his sweetheart on the south Orange County cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean. He later delivered her engagement ring in a small basket overflowing with mayflowers. They were married in a small ceremony on June 21, 1940.

Migration Policy Institute. June 20, 2012.
President Obama's decision to protect from deportation and provide work authorization to certain unauthorized immigrants brought to the United States as minors — which represents the boldest immigration policy move of his administration — has generated considerable attention for its political implications. But while much of the focus has been on politics and legislative wrangling, less attention has been paid to the capacity and implementation challenges that ultimately will determine the scope and success of the administration initiative.

we really enjoyed staying at Takeo and it was by far the best of all the guest houses that we stayed in during our 3 week trip to Thailand and Cambodia. The only thing missing is a swimming pool. Highly recommended

We stayed in this guesthouse for three nights and it was wonderful. Very, very clean. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom was clean and lots of hot water. The rooftop terrace/restaurant was really lovely. The free breakfasts are very generous and you have lots to choose from (pancakes, omelets, lots of fresh fruit, warm baguettes and really, really good coffee). The total cost of the room came to about $60 USD for two people in a double private room with a bathroom/shower.

We had a positive experience at Golden Takeo. The staff were friendly and the owner Phrom was competent. He is a no-nonsense guy who you can trust to gets things done. He booked our bus tickets even after I checked out of the hotel and was elsewhere. Our room was large and clean. Breakfast on the rooftop was very good. The fish massage was fun. We rented mountain bikes (good condition) from the hotel for a day at ankor wat. We ended up extendeding our stay at Golden Takeo.

Flirt P1640 Prom Dress
Talk about a walk on the wild side! This Flirt Prom P1640 dress is so high fashion, it is out of this world. The high to low style has been taken the ballgown route by the one, the only Madeline Gardner, Flirt's very own award winning designer! The strapless bust is adorned with flowers, and the mixed tulle skirt is certainly eye catching. Love it or leave it!

We might go 82-0-0. I write that only so I can look back later when we're having trouble scoring goals and remember the good days. Here we go:
1. Stephane Veilleux is a mean little f***er. The winger got into a fight tonight and showed he's got some spunk. Good for Stephane...who needs Boogaard?
2. Three point night for Brian Rolston. Even with the additions of Demitra and Johnsson, he's still this team's most complete player, leader and MVP.
3. The return of Brent Burns. Solid night for the young defenseman. Ended up +2 after playing for more than 18 minutes.
4. Only 9:33 for Jaroslav Balastik? Jes Golbez would be spinning in his grave if he were dead.
Now at last they hit the road. We'll get a real feel for just how good this team is by the end of next week after stops in Los Angeles, Anaheim and San Jose. Roy out.

You're probably tired of hearing this by now, but this gouge is right on. As far as the cog test, it starts out very easy, but I thought the last two parts were very difficult. I haven't played a video game in years, maybe that's why. I think it's safe to say the cog test is not very heavily weighted, because if it were, I would not have gotten the "congrats" letter!

The owner sabotaging himself? Not sure that's even possible. Unless they are saying they are sabotaging the situation to make Carol Davis do something she is opposed to right now (LA?). I simply don't have that kind of inside information to know. But that is the only thing I can think of and this person would have to be in real close to know. Other then that we have yet to see what they can do and won't know for years. To me if they fail it would be because they weren't good enough, fair and square.

We could get a witch doctor to resurrect Al and get Hue to leave his janitors job at Bengal head quarters, or ..... maybe not.
That time has gone, if Reggie does fail we wont going back to Al and Hue, those are two guy that will never lead the Raiders again.
So having that debate gets really old, i wouldn't waste my time.
I am curious on the reasons behind the whole "sabotaging" argument. Why would McKenzie and Allen want to completely ruin their careers? Who would this benefit in any way?

This thread has went about 48 posts too long simple matter is Reggie has done what he needed to do to field a team and try to make this team successful in the future. The pain is not over yet we will face some tough choices next year until we get thinks under control with the cap. Making a decision on whether Reggie has or has not hurt the team is totally premature. All signs point to we are starting to head in the right direction. Who cares what anyone says at this point because that is NO RESULTS to base a decision on. Thank goodness TC is open in 25 days.

Bingo. Converting the Raider franchise from what it was to one that will be continually competitive is not something that's going to happen overnight. The organization was pretty messed up -- this is not a secret, everyone knew it -- and it'll take a few years return the team to financial health.
Truer words have rarely been spoken.Thank goodness TC is open in 25 days.
Reggie's here to help.

"You can't Appoint, Hire, or Declare Leadership" ~ Sonny Barger
"Al Davis thought all owners were dilettantes with a new toy. He said to me many times through the years that owners are often the problem with their franchises, that too many of them think they can run things when they cannot, and the teams that succeed are the ones where the owner hires the best people he can and turns the game over to them."
Exactly! Agreed every word......and now I have prolonged it with another thread to say this....
Building properly gets you a team that can win year in and year out.....Mortgaging the future gives you a small window..
I would not want a SB win if it has to be followed by 5 losing seasons or more.......I want to enjoy watching a competitive team every year and thats what Reggie is doing.....

Steve Melendrez knew there'd be tough days when he signed up two of his sons for a new program at Ivanhoe Elementary, one that promised to make them fluent and literate in both English and Spanish.
Melendrez's language is English, despite his Latino surname, and when his sons needed help, Melendrez started dialing desperately: "Doing homework is tough. We have to call all over Silver Lake to understand one word." Often, he had to accept that he could neither keep up nor help out the way he wanted.
But he never expected what happened in February. In this, the fourth year of the "dual language" program, the school's administration talked suddenly of phasing it out: no new kindergartners in, no more Spanish instruction for the first students, the ones who'd started in 1998.
Parents such as Melendrez felt perplexed and even betrayed. Here, finally, was an academically rigorous program that accomplished a laudable goal; it made students truly bilingual. And yet, administrators wanted it shut down -- even though the school had pointedly asked parents to commit for a full six years. Melendrez had ultimately enrolled all three of his boys, and now the district was breaking its commitment.
Spanish dual language is in decline or has disappeared at four of the 10 district schools that have offered the program. This turn of events is remarkable, given that many educators have viewed dual language as the path of the future, a sure method of making children biliterate. In L.A. especially, where business and life transpire in many tongues, language skills translate to job skills, above and beyond their value for bridging cultures. When the Ivanhoe parents engaged the fight to save dual language, however, they came face to face with a school-district bureaucracy focused elsewhere: on high-stakes testing, financial woes and an overall academic program that has yet to make the grade in English.
At Ivanhoe, the parents' foes included some other parents, whose children were in the school's regular classes. The critics asserted that dual language takes an unfair share of resources and might eventually crowd out neighborhood students from the undersized campus. Some teachers complained that dual language forced them to teach mixed grade levels, classes that combined fourth- and fifth-graders, for instance.
In addition, the school is now run by a second-year, first-time principal with no personal investment in Ivanhoe's dual-language program. And, unluckily, her arrival coincided with a noticeable dip in test scores -- not long after Ivanhoe's high scores had merited a front-page story in the L.A. Times. Dual language became an obvious target because it focuses most intensively on the foreign language -- the language other than English -- early on. And the standardized tests used to rank schools are given in English.
"There is a dip for the English-speaking students -- because they are learning in another language -- and for the Spanish-speaking students too -- because they don't speak English as well," said Rita Caldera, director of the Language Acquisition Branch for L.A. Unified. "By the fourth and fifth grades, you should start seeing a turnaround."
School administrators, however, are evaluated in the here and now, by a state-administered rating called the API, which is based solely on the scores of tests given in English. "Your API is dependent on those scores," said Caldera, a proponent of dual language. "That is what is published in the newspapers. You're either good or bad based on the scores."
Or, as state Assemblywoman Jackie Goldberg put it, "If I'm a principal and my test scores are lagging, I'm thinking, 'Oh, my god, I'm out of here.'"
The state's class-size reduction program, which lasts through grade three, created another squeeze, limiting the school's enrollment. And now, the original dual-language group, which comprises third- and fourth-graders, has only 17 students. Other upper-grade classes have 30, and that number could swell amid the school district's current budget crisis. Principal Mary Jane Collier, whose school has received no extra money for dual language, faced the unpopular prospect of having to lay off a current teacher and make other classes larger to keep dual language going. Is it any wonder, then, that she signaled her intention to end the program at a February 27 schoolwide meeting?
Similar pressures have weighed on the handful of other dual-language programs in L.A. Unified. Dual language at Hamlin Street Elementary, in Canoga Park, will probably fold at the end of June. Nearby Limerick Avenue Elementary is phasing out its program. "The whole swing of things has changed," said Limerick principal Dora Pimentel-Baxter. "We are focusing on getting our students to adopt the English language. There hasn't been anyone who's called up and wanted dual language for their kindergarten student." And the test scores of dual-language students, she added, were low compared to other students.
A dual-language program at Columbus Middle School, also in Canoga Park, shut down in June 1999. A school coordinator said dual language couldn't survive Proposition 227, the voter-approved initiative that did away with traditional bilingual education. The school interpreted the law as forbidding recruitment for any non-English program.

About Me Working Parent
Comments about Toysmith Megaphone Voice Changer:
This toy was good enough to make it home from the store (5 mins) and got new batteries to replace the dead battery and it still doesn't work. I understand it was only a few dollars, but c'mon man.

About Me Grandparent
I didn't expect much for the few dollars this cost, but REALLY (!), the photo should come with a pencil beside the product to provide perspective. It is SO TINY, and the voice functions are not that variable. Never mind, I just picked up a few for the kids to goof with at a family gathering, and for that these were adequate.

About Me Parent Of Two Or More Children, Stay At Home Parent
Bought this for my 7 year old son because his teacher had something similar and the kids loved it. For just [$] I figured why not, but it has ended up a real favorite! I love it as well and it just gets us all giggling! Great to use to ease the tension when I'm mad. Will be buying more for gifts!

I went "burl hunting" with my brother and found a dead mesquite limb with about 4 burls on it. On one of those days when I "just had to make something," I cut this burl from the branch, sanded down to wood, and cut the opening. It sat for a week or so, but I finally got back to it this week and finished it. I would have liked the lid to fit better, but otherwise I'm pleased.

I'm coming up on my one year anniversary for self-publishing. In that time, I've published four novels (I had two written coming into this, but I did manage to write two full novels this year as well), two novellas, and some shorter stories. I haven't become a bestseller or some phenom that the traditional publishers are drooling over, but I believe I've done reasonably well.
May was the last month where I earned less than $1,000, and I've earned as much as $4,000 (November, thanks to the release of my most recent novel). Most recent months have been in the $2,500-$3,000 range (though October was quite a bit lower and showed me how quickly things can slow down if you haven't had a new release for a while and you haven't done any big promotional kicks).
This isn't my sole source of income, but I find it encouraging to know that I could live off this income, if modestly done. Of course, I hope I'll continue to acquire new fans and the sales numbers will grow as I write and release more books.
So, as I said, I'm not a huge success in the e-publishing world, but I know I've been fortunate enough to find what a lot of folks seek. What I hope is encouraging for many of you is that we've finally entered an age where it's a) possible to make decent money self-publishing and b) possible to make that money without being a huge star.
The Secret to Success?
Every now and then someone asks me about "secrets." As in, what's the secret to making it as a self-published author?
This may be a disappointing answer, but the main thing I've figured out is that there's no one thing. It's a lot of plugging away and sticking with it.
I'll list some of what I've learned here though. Please keep in mind that I'm still learning. At least one of the suggestions I have for you is something I failed to do myself (but will do when I'm ready to launch a new series).
In no particular order, a few "secrets"…
- It helps to be everywhere a reader could possibly stumble over you — You can read my recent post on author branding to see all the places I've made myself and/or my work available.
- Give something away for free — I've talked about this often before, but giving away a short story is the first thing I did that really made a difference. It starred the characters from the first novel I released, and I included an excerpt from the novel at the end. Lots of people have told me they went on to buy the novel after trying and enjoying the story. In all honesty, giving away an entire novel can work even better (especially a Book 1 in a series), but I wasn't in a position to do that in the beginning (since I didn't have other books in the series written yet).
- Think like a publisher — This is something I failed to do. Because I was trying to save money, I struggled to get cover art I really liked (if it didn't wow me, how was it supposed to wow potential readers?). Also, I didn't spend enough time thinking up a cool title for Book 1 and a cool series name for the whole thing. The title for the first book (which ultimately became the series title) was my working title and I never came up with something better. I should have brainstormed more and thought up an awesome series title that would stick in people's heads. Something brandable. In short, I didn't really think about the packaging and the presentation the way a publisher would. (Nothing is set in stone with POD printing and e-publishing, though, and I may yet rename that series!)
- Realize it's a marathon, not a sprint — If you want to make a career out of self-publishing someday (or maybe you dream of leveraging your self-publishing success into a traditional publishing deal), you have to realize it's something that will develop over years. Sure, I've done well in just one year, but I've also put out a lot of books. If I'd just had one or maybe two out after a year, I doubt I'd be selling more than a couple hundred books a month total. If you're very prolific, you might be able to get things rolling more quickly than I have, but most people don't write that fast. They've got day jobs and families. That doesn't mean that they can't succeed, just that it will take longer. Don't get discouraged when you're not a hit in the first month or even six months. In the year I've been doing this, I've chatted with many new authors on Twitter, and everyone starts out so excited and passionate when they first publish, but then I realize I haven't heard from them in a while, and I check their tweets and their blog…and they've just faded away.
- Play around with price points — I have a whole podcast where I ramble about paperback and ebook pricing strategies, so I'll direct you to that for when you have some free time, but, in short, change things up. Don't feel you have to charge 99 cents because you're an unknown author (there are lots of authors at your local Barnes & Noble that are unknown to you until you stumble across their books and try them), but don't be afraid to try 99 cents, or even free, as part of a greater strategy either.
- Writing a series can help — I've always enjoyed reading series where you get to fall in love with characters and continue following their adventures, so I wasn't thinking strategy when I started my series. I just always knew I wanted to do at least six books with my core set of characters. As it turns out, that has served me well. I see it serving a lot of other authors well too. Not everybody who picks up your first book is going to like it enough to go on to read the others, but some will, and some will enjoy things enough to go on and buy all the books in your series. Honestly, it's not quite the same no-brainer for readers when you have unrelated books. Even if they liked the first, they may think the plot summaries of the others don't sound as appealing. It's characters that people get invested in. If you're jumping around and writing in different genres, you're really going to make it hard on yourself.
- Start a newsletter (AKA get your fans' email addresses!) — I've already blogged about why authors should start mailing lists, so I'll refer you to that post for details, but it's extremely helpful to be able to contact your fans directly once you have a new book out. When you're an indie author, Amazon isn't going to make a big splash every time you have a new release out, so you're on your own for building buzz. Having a list of folks that you can contact all at once will make it so you don't have to start over with your marketing efforts every time.
- Write well and entertain folks — In the end, there's only so much marketing we can do. You don't have to please everyone, but you do have to please someone, and the more people who read your books and recommend them to others, the better you're going to do in this business. Get your work professionally edited, but long before that, consider joining a writing workshop and taking classes or at least secure a good group of beta readers, folks who aren't afraid to point out the boring parts. Ultimately, you have to put out a good product.
Thoughts? Any secrets you'd like to share?
