The most awesome thing with blogs is that you get to respond to your readers, and that gives you ideas for creating new posts, and sometimes reviving old posts. I got a comment about my post yesterday on the benefits of trackbacks, and it did occur to me that I might need to give people some info on how to actually do one, and sure enough, I got a question about how do you actually do a trackback. So instead of reinventing the wheel, here the link to my original post about leaving trackbacks. Let me know if you need more explicit directions....

Go Ugly Early!
- Going Ugly Early means from a content standpoint, get your stuff out there, and let the market tweak and fine tune it for you. Blogs are a perfect way to do that. Be willing to set yourself up for both positive and negative feedback and roll with the punches. A picture perfect manuscipt that has only had your critical eye on it's pages isn't doing anything. Get your message out, and see what happens!
Who is Brutus?
- Brutus is a bulldog that I adopted and had for about a year. At the time I got him, I was working from home, not traveling so much, and was able to take care of him the way dogs deserve to be taken care of. After about a year, my lifestyle changed drastically, and I was out of town alot. Sure, Brutus had his doggie day care person, but it wasn't the kind of life I thought he should have. One of the hardest things I did was let Brutus be adopted by another family that really loves him. They had just lost one of their dogs, and had the kind of situation that would be great for him, so he lives with them now, and has a great life. I learned a lot from Brutus, and one of the biggest lessons he taught me was non-attachment. Thanks Brutie! ;)
