    Vigilante's "Mind Your Business" Radio Show

    EXECUTION 
    I'm betting the Podcast has a lot more good reviews that haven't shown up yet. I know my review hasn't. I did some quick research, and apparently, it can sometimes take a couple of days. (I tried resubmitting mine, and it won't let me, because I've already reviewed it. So this seems a good...

    EXECUTION 
    Yay! I'm so glad this is on ITunes. I was feeling deprived! I just left a review on ITunes too, which may take a few hours to show up. Hey, on that note...If you have a couple minutes, and have enjoyed the podcast, please consider leaving a review. I know from experience that even a review of...

    What is the best renting option in knoxville?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm not familiar with Knoxville in particular, but I live in the neighboring state. For initial research, maybe they could check Zillow.com. The site is primarily used for home-sales, but it also lists rentals. Also, you could check Craigslist. Here in my city, you can find lots of places to...

    I agree 100% I think you're doing a kind, honorable, and smart thing, and should definitely keep your word. I think your plan is great. I also think you'll learn a lot and get some great benefits from selling goods already on-hand from an established business. This could be a total win-win...

    Jumping on the bandwagon

    PUBLISHING 
    Wow. You know, those numbers are truly staggering. I'm betting lots of authors never write that many works in their whole lives, much less a year. You seriously rock!

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    Ha ha. I don't recall any of us predicting that the sky was falling, but rather indicating that we were watching and concerned. Personally though, I'd be thrilled if this comes to nothing. The sad thing is, as long as there's still an outbreak in West Africa, and as long as we're allowing...

    You sound like you have a really great head on your shoulders.I'm not an online biz guru, so all I can really offer is encouragement. I really admire that you're considering all these things at such a relatively young age. You're way ahead of the curve, especially since you've actually acted on...

    Seeking help with self publishing my first book

    PUBLISHING 
    IMO, don't use any of these, unless you're talking about basic things like paying for copy editing or a cover-design. Just avoid vanity presses, where they charge you lots of money just to get your book "published." If you're looking to publish on Amazon, you can do that for free. Just google...

    Cheap houses you can buy in detroit for less than $500

    REAL ESTATE 
    For space, I won't quote all of your post, but that was really interesting stuff. One thing that always amazes me about Detroit is its architecture. I mean, you see these wonderful, timeless buildings that look like they were built to last hundreds of years. And then, they're boarded up or...

    Cheap houses you can buy in detroit for less than $500

    REAL ESTATE 
    I think this is a noble idea, but ultimately unrealistic. Way too many of Detroit residents get paid to do nothing via welfare, food stamps, and housing vouchers. Why work? Why take any risk? Why even try? I know a gal in Michigan, a single mom, who says she wants to work. But she's in a pickle...

    Vigilante's "Mind Your Business" Radio Show

    EXECUTION 
    I can't wait for this to hit ITunes! I listen to Podcasts all the time when I'm making dinner, mowing the lawn etc. I'll definitely add this to my list. On that note, I was listening to a self-pubbing podcast today, and they happened to mention that the vast majority of their audience members...

    Welcome Back KAK

    Yes! Welcome back!!! I've missed your posts, @Kak . They were always some of the best -- and most delightfully entertaining too, since you have such a way with words.

    My regrets as a 46 year old, and advice to others at a crossroad

    HOT! 
    My husband is an electrician. One time, he did a service call at this super-nice house, maybe even a mansion. The home-owner, a middle-aged, highly professional person, was taking my husband through the house, showing what needed to be done. When they passed by the bedroom of this guy's teenage...

    My regrets as a 46 year old, and advice to others at a crossroad

    HOT! 
    Just putting in my two cents...I think of this forum as intended for adults, even if some enterprising under-age people might opt to view and participate. I'd hate for us to censor 99.9% of the members to accommodate the small fraction who might be under 18. And if they are underage, I'd think...

    My regrets as a 46 year old, and advice to others at a crossroad

    HOT! 
    Funny, I'm almost exactly this guy's age. My intro thread on this forum was entitled "Where I Confess My Failures," because I'd tried and failed at so many entrepreneurial ventures. But instead of thinking, "My Life Is Over," I thought, "I've GOT to pick myself up and keep on trying." As many...

    Trying Out Self-Publishing

    PUBLISHING 
    Congrats on your stellar beginning and amazing word counts! This is excellent advice! Also, a quick note... Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see anything in your posts to indicate that you've set up a mailing list. If you haven't done that, please consider doing that asap. If you have a strong...

    [PROGRESS THREAD] ChickenHawk's Self-Published Fiction EBooks

    GOLD! 
    You're so welcome! For my breakout book, I did nothing launch-wise, other than simply publish the book to Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, and Kobo. I was not in KDP select, and did zero advertising. Now that I have a mailing list, though, I send out an email to my subscribers announcing the...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    I think there's a common misconception that people who are "concerned about ebola," are panicking. I'm not panicking about Ebola any more than I panic when I hear there's a chance that conditions are possible for severe weather. Mostly, I keep my eye on things and try to have some extra supplies...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    New York Doctor Tests Positive for Ebola. He's been "under the weather" for a couple of days, during which he rode the subway, went on a 3-mile jog, went bowling, and took a taxi. In cheery news, officials assure us that he had direct contact with very few people so there's no need to worry...
