Did it surprise you that it was me BECAUSE it was very well put together? (Just kidding.) :)

Thanks for the suggestions Larken. Glad I have the attitude you mentioned in your last point, about not expecting or focusing on the money. I value what is received more when it does come my way.

Your article also helps by encouraging me to think more about marketing, and to broaden my subject matter. Thanks for that. Been a fan for a long time and I can't imagine that will ever change, not that I expect you to suddenly turn into a stone monument (tho you are certainly worthy of one). Lets not call it change, lets call it evolve, implying positive movement towards higher order, not decay and erosion.
