Some business plans are underway. Exciting for the unknown to be conquered.
I’m considering an offer as an Editor-in-Chief for a magazine based in Asia, while working as Chief Instructional Developer for a career school. Both posts will start in March or April 2012.

In the book on becoming a self-made millionaire, I’ll include both my own experiences and others’.
Places to visit scheduled this year:
Jakarta, Singapore, Macau, Bangkok, Kona, Guam, London, etc.
Writing about places is inevitable! So excited.

1) I’m writing a book of 250 pages on becoming a self-made millionaire to be published by a NY-based publisher. For this, I’d need to conduct in-depth interviews with at least 50 self-made millionaires worldwide via email and phone. Nett worth must be verifiable. Please contact Jennie S. Bev via jenniesbevcom@gmail.com. My web: http://www.jenniesbev.com
2) I’m writing a book of 150 pages on Earning $80K/Year from Book Royalties. If you’re making at least $80K/year from royalties last year, I’d like to hear from you. Contact me at jenniesbevcom@gmail.com. Thanks!

A successful blogger/author should consider guest blogging. A top author wrote that he once guest blogged to 60 high-traffic blogs. It’s something I’d like to pursue someday, but which blogs? Writing 60 blog posts for exposure sounds a lot, but then I thought… why not 100 instead? Round it up? Make it even?
If you have a blog and your blog is read by gazillion visitors per day, contact me. Perhaps we can exchange services.
I’m really into philosophy and philosophers now, because I see myself as lacking proper education in this. Good thing is, most philosophy books are in the public domain, so it doesn’t cost me any penny. Amazon Kindle has most of the titles needed. Public domain audiobooks are also available through Free eBooks iPad app. Talking about an abundance of knowledge at our finger tips.

Studying Psychology is so enlightening. It gives me a sense of control through understanding profiles, disorders, and coping mechanisms. Studying philosophy is also enlightening. Have started philosophical analysis on John Stuart Mill. Let’s see where it takes me to.
A friend asked, “What are you writing now, Jennie?” I answered, “I always have something to write.” For 2012, I have writing projects already lining up: updating 32 more ebooks (out of 80+ titles), writing five regular-length books (200+ pages), and writing 100 column articles. In between, I write essays for Amazon Kindle publishing and finishing up studies for two professional licenses.
Out of five books being brewed, two of them are already nagging to be born for years:
- A memoir of personal care as a Chinese woman
- A book on becoming a self-made millionaire, which is a part memoir and a part self-help/how-to
All writing projects can be done anywhere in the world, thus they don’t interrupt with my travels –both for pleasure and business, most likely for pleasure. 
This blog is a testament of my writing activities, so visit often or subscribe to its feeds, join my Twitter @jenniesbevcom and FaceBook page. Thanks for your continued support.
