Thanks to all of you, the centisble life is having a fantastic rise in readership. Pageviews and visitors doubled from July to August, doubled again from August to September, and then doubled AGAIN! from September to October! Subscriptions have more than doubled as well! Last week I had one of the best weeks ever for the blog!

I’m thrilled to have all your support, and I’m starting to think this blogging stuff could actually be a nice part-time career for me. (which is what I want) Ironically though I write about personal finance, and family, and both things have moved out of focus as my website (and other writing projects) take up my time.

In the last 2 weeks I’ve been experimenting with a new posting schedule, and writing less often. It’s working really well so far. But I would love to have your feedback. I’ve created a short (less than 1 minute) survey and I would love if you could take a minute and answer 4 questions. It’s as easy as checking a box!

Click here to take survey!

I really appreciate all the support, and I’ll be using my time “off” from the centsible life to exercise (to combat blogger’s butt), keep up with the fit life, write for other blogs, and spend time with my family.

For more of my writing elsewhere, check out my 1st article at Examiner.com on budgeting with variable income. Also be on the lookout for a “tryout” post by yours truly on Consumerism Commentary. I’m trying to land a staff writing position, so your support would be fantastic!

Thank you all so much for making the centsible life a success!

    Congratulations! I'm a big fan of the Consumerism Commentary podcast. Do you plan on making in guest appearances anytime soon? Either way, I'll keep a look out for your "tryout" posts on their blog.
