Putting My Book to Work Where Im Published in July 2015 ParentingMagazineWriting

I like to let you know where Im published each month not to brag, but to let you know you can also be doing it. To let you know that if you dont quit and you keep going, you will succeed! Check out my #30Submissions30Days challenge here! And of course you can do exactly what Im doing if you buy my book here on Amazon! This month I had 11 articles in 10 publications and made a total of $345. I would say thats a nice little residual income on pieces I had written months to years ago that still sell from month to month while I have time to focus on writing brand new pieces! Give it a try!

1. After pitching for years to Colorado Parent, they picked up my Slumber Party Dos and Donts and I could not be more excited!

2. Okanagan Child is a publication that I had also never been in, so I am so excited to be in their Summer 2015 issue with my Good Grandparent Guide!

3. Boom! published my Good Grandparent Guide as well

4. Texarkana Parent is a new publication for me to be in and they used TWO of my pieces: Lemonade Stand Learning and what I called When Your Childs Pet Dies.

5. Birmingham Parent used Allowance Conundrum.

6. About Families published Surviving the First Year of Motherhood

7. Neapolitan Family used Birthday Traditions

8. Augusta Family published Kids and Activities: Seek Balance

9. Cincinnati Parent used Birthday Traditions

10. Palm Beach Parenting published Bust Indoor Boredom

Check out my #30Submissions30Days challenge here! And of course you can do exactly what Im doing if you buy my book here on Amazon!

1. After pitching for years to Birmingham Parent, they picked up my 8 Tips for Saving on Birthday Gifts for June 2015 and I could not be more excited!

2. About Families used my Birthday Party Excess piece, inspired by all the over-the-top, expensive parties that go down these days when I am doing good just to have a simple, at-home party for each of my own 5 kids!

3. Space City Publishing (several magazines in Texas) used Lemonade Stand Learning, inspired by watching my kids do lemonade stands one summer and all the cool things they learned doing so.

4. Bermuda Parent is using Lemonade Stand Learning, Bust Indoor Boredom, Birthday Traditions with Kids and Travel with Kids.

5. Cincinnati Parent is using Birthday Traditions, inspired by fun things I like to do with my own kids.

6. First Time Parent is an app magazine on your smartphone, and they used my piece on Double Diapering, about using both cloth AND paper diapers (not at the same time!).

7. Atlanta Parent used Pregnancy Sleep Solutions, a piece I wrote forever ago, and Lemonade Stand Learning. (Im glad I sent out that lemonade piece again this year!)

8. Baton Rouge Parents used The No-Gift Birthday Party, inspired by kids who dont want a gift but instead want to have a party at an animal shelter or do some other cool thing to give back instead of acquiring more stuff.

9. Toledo Area Parent News used Eating Organic on a Budget (also have never worked with Toledo Area Parent so this is a new one for me and Im so thrilled!)
