$12.96

Somehow, my birthday wish was granted.

On April 1st, I wrote:

Since April is my birth month, my wish for this month is to make money (no matter how impossible it is at where I am right now) from internet marketing. Now, that's wishful thinking!

Then yesterday, April 29th, I received my first affiliate check ever. It is for $12.96. The check came from an affiliate company where I am subscribed to.

I could not believe it. I have long since deleted affiliate links from my websites and in my blogs since I thought they were useless anyway. I thought I was just wasting my space. So I did website makeovers and blog makeovers when my WowEzine.com was in a crash.

Okay, I still have some affiliate links but not as part of the site but as part of the content that I write. Like this blog still links to Holly Mann's site.

But the main thing is, I got this super-doper check and it is very little but big enough for me to get going. It paid off somehow. Is it my wishful thinking or my effort? I don't know and I don't care.

But now the inspiration is going through my blood again. Pat in my back. Congratulations myself. Way to go, girl!
