A Chronical of Hope…

I have been loving the experience of blogging and went into it with no expectation of making money. I wanted to write about Chronic Pain and Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia and Invisible Illness. I didn’t even think it was possible to make money Writing about subjects like that, but apparently, there is a way to monetize a blog to do just that. So…I’ve started a second blog.

The name of the new blog is A Chronical Of Hope – notice the play on words with Chronical, rather than the typical Chronicle? I have to tell you something funny about that. I use a free program called Grammarly for my writing online to make sure I’m spelling things correctly and using proper grammar (you’d be surprised how many times I use commas inappropriately!). When I registered the new domain name at Hover.com, there was no problem…www.achronicalofhope.com is all mine. But when I went to the hosting site Bluehost.com to actually host the domain, Grammarly corrected the word Chronical to Chronicle and I didn’t notice (I was doing this at 3am) and it totally screwed up everything. I couldn’t launch my new site for the life of me, and I couldn’t figure out why…everything was set up properly, everything was pointing in the right direction, but nothing…it would not come up online. I finally noticed the problem and a fine young man named Deepak at the Helpdesk spent 30 minutes working with me to resolve the problem – most of the time being taken because it takes time to switch things over. I had to laugh…good old Grammarly, doing its job too well!

I’m also doing something a tiny bit different in that I’m using WordPress.org, instead of WordPress.com to produce content on the new blog. All this means is that I own the content of A Chronical Of Hope – on WordPress.com, they own everything, because you are being hosted on their platform, which is why it’s free. I pay Bluehost a fee to host my new blog so I own the content. Big difference.

The main reason I’ve started the second blog though is that I plan on turning it into a monetizing blog – one where I can earn money.  I could do that with There Is Always Hope, but I would have to change-up my theme again and make a bunch of other changes to it, and I’m just not prepared to do that. I want to keep this blog for simply writing for the joy of writing. I will be marketing A Chronical Of Hope in a different way although to the same audience – those who live with Fibro and Chronic Pain and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Invisible Illness. I’ll be working with Affiliates such as Amazon, selling products that would appeal to people with those conditions and I will use this blog to cross-market by linking to A Chronical Of Hope when appropriate. I also have plans to sell my e-Book on the other blog as well as I wasn’t able to set it up to sell on this one.

e-Book you say? Yes, I put together an e-Book with 30 Positive Affirmations in .pdf format so you can carry positive words in your heart. If your device can open a .pdf file, you can take these words with you wherever you go and read them whenever you need them. All done up in a pretty format, I think you’ll like it. Just $3.00 and payable via PayPal. You can click here to order if you’re interested and it’s now available to order off the last post as well.

I hope you’ve been enjoying my blogging journey as much as I have been. I’ve received a lot of positive feedback on my writing and the topics I’ve chosen to write about and I hope to bring you more in the near future. Thank you for following me. I appreciate each and every one of you. Remember…

There is always hope!
