What a crazy two days!
Okay, update time! The very first poem I’ve written for SINMinX has been approved by the person who requested it. It’s five lines total and I’ll be putting it up as soon I’ve received payment and the appropriate graphic for the button.
Also, don’t forget to check my completely ghetto YouTube video where I show a couple paintings that I’ve done - two that did NOT sell on E-bay during my first two auctions. Aside from that, I’m ecstatic to announce that the E-bay auction for the TOP (first) sponsor button received its first bid!! Here are the auctions if you’d like to track their progress:
Special Sponsor Button #1 auction
Special Sponsor Button #2 auction
Special Sponsor Button #3 auction
I’ve altered the listing to specify that I’ll be writing a handwritten copy of the poem out for the winning bidders that will include a personalized message from me to them.
Also, the press release for The Million Dollar poetry project has been accepted by four organizations:
and TheOpenPress.com, thanks to technical assistance from their CEO!
So, if you come across one of the press releases about this project, I’d be most grateful if you felt like socially bookmarking it to help it reach a wider audience!
Honestly, I had high hopes for SINMinX when I started a couple days ago, but I’m truly awed at the generous support people have been offering. I also appreciate the criticisms because sometimes valid points can be made that way, too.
In the coming days I’ll be fine tuning the more functional aspects of this blog, so please stay tuned. I’m not a graphic arts type person so the site may not wind up LOOKING better, but it’ll have a wider array of useful features that you visitors might want to take advantage of.
Despite the completely hectic schedule I’ve been keeping, I’ve managed to keep up with posting for Happy Horror and even to write a new poem. If anyone’s interested I can publish it here so everyone can take a look, but I’ll wait until someone comments or e-mails to request it.
Again, your support means more to me than I can convey via text, so for those of you rooting for this project (and maybe me, as well) - THANK YOU! Keep your fingers crossed that the Million Dollar Poetry project’s press releases get put in front of the right sets of eyes.
Then we might just end up making a little history and we’ll all be able to say we were there from the very first days! Be sure to speak up and get yourself counted as a founding supporter of the idea, even if you never plan to buy a poem.
Oh, before I forget, here’s my MySpace page so feel free to friend me if you’d like.
That’s a wrap for me, but stay tuned. I intend to be as candid and transparent as possible so I’ll be posting videos daily - hopefully - to keep everyone updated. I want you who took the time to read my blog to get a clear picture of how I’m going about climbing the path to success. I don’t want to give a retrospective based off time-corroded memories, I to tell the
story AS IT HAPPENS.
Simply because those kinds of stories inspire me. Be what you wish you were, that’s one of my guiding philosophies.
