I’ve been writing weekly posts at Five Cent Nickel for the past couple of months. So far, I’m really enjoying it as it’s given me an opportunity to write for another audience, learn from Nickel and Matt’s writing styl e,and introduced me to some wonderful people.
My main focus is still Green Panda Treehouse and I’m hoping that you’ve noticed an improvement on my posts here due to my other writing projects.
Tomorrow, I’ll be having a giveaway for a free iPhone/ iPod Touch app called WalletWhiz. It’s a budgetting calender app that I think some of my readers could really use. Please check it out and spread the word.

I love FiveCentNickle! That’s such a great blog- congrats on the gig. Since a lot of your articles are How-To’s, you might be interested in a book I just read called The Power of Small. It’s all about achieving your goals by taking small steps and a lot of what they talk about relates well to Personal Finance. Hope this helps!
Thanks for the book recommendation. I requested it from the library. I’m looking forward to checking it out.
