Cafepress A Store Owners Journey
Well sales are down this month! ‘talk about perplexed!’ anyone who follows my stores will know how much I promote any free way I can.
I can never be accused of not keeping up with this venture, and I have
kept at it ever since.  I see alot of  discussions in forums, individuals who are still struggling to make sales with there artwork and do not seem to be getting anywhere, no matter how they try.  Having read some success stories with Cafepress, in the beginning I found I had to try this for myself. So I signed up with Cafepress.  After the first few months and with my first 50 designs uploaded I started to sell.  Well I was delighted as you can imagine. 'no more encouragement needed' Even some of the most successful people with Cafepress said  ’Quote’  if you sell 1 or 4 designs during your first year your doing extremely well.  This then was all the encouragement I needed and I actually went on to sell a whole lot more with Cafepress that same year.   My main focus was originality trying to appeal to many different types of art lovers topics and interests. I also felt I needed to help those guys in forums who were finding it difficult and as much as it was purely for beneficial reasons ‘money‘, it was also to see if Cafepress was a really all what it was cracked up to be.

I felt if store owners could follow my trail e.g my website & online stores, and see how much work I am putting into this, as well as check out  how  many sales via my website. We could bounce ideas of each other.

My next plan is for all budding Cafepress hopefuls, who are just starting out or maybe still deciding whether to join Cafepress,  to give them some good basic knowledge how much they could expect earn given how much I myself have put into this and the amount of work it takes.  

Well folks here it is. The url above will let you follow my Sales-As-They-Happen which I hope will give you a feel of what to expect whatever you decide to put into this venture.  Let me tell you! It sure takes a hell of hard work.  Some of my past jobs was being a Plasterer, Painter & Concreter and believe me! Given the amount of knowledge you have to equip yourself, which is by the way a never ending theme for anyone in this game, its certainly isn't all about designing art. You do start to question ‘Is This Just Another Scam Or Is It The Real Deal’  so for anyone out there who maybe thinking of signing up with Cafepress or Zazzle. You can check out all my work online at the stores on this website,  as well as watch in real time my Sales-As-They-Happen page. 

If Sales Pick Up Well Again You Can Watch In Real Time.  
Zazzle is another online POD who I have started to run with. I cannot comment on Zazzle as of yet, as I have only recently joined up with them. But will keep everyone informed of Zazzle sales at the url above.

I do hope Cafepress & Zazzle turn out to be what I favour them to be ‘LEGITIMATE’ You Need To Know A Few Things!


What I Do Believe IS: It doesnot happen overnight! It takes time!, its all about hard work patience and numbers, Lets Wait & See..

There's been a lot of talk lately regarding 'ISON', for anyone who is unaware! 'ISON is a comet and what astronomers are now calling the comet the century, apparently this comet will be 15 times brighter than the moon, and is due between Oct-Nov 2013. But even though you can find all this information on Youtube ' its not something you hear on 10:00 o clock news. For something so spectacular in Luminousy ! I find this very unusual for such a spectacular astronomical event. In the past we have all heard the stories regarding Halleys Comet and some of us have seen! which comes around every 75-76 years and is visible to the naked eye, Halleys last appearance was 1986 and its next due arrival wont be till 2061. However 'ISON' seems a little bit more to be attentive, giving its tail length 186,000 miles long, as for its nucleus noone is still quite sure. Also given the events that recently happened with the Russia meteor which hit, I feel this comets arrival  is an extremely important event!.and people should be aware at least of its arrival. Not to scare anyone there's a lot of belief & speculation with the arrival of comets, and what there arrival herald. But it came to my attention also we will then also witness or Israel rather 4 Tetrads 'or Blood Moons' in 2014 through to 2015.
 
 
Being originally from Liverpool, people are all to familiar with Tom Slemen, Toms books are widely known among scousers the Haunted Liverpool volumes are fascinating to say the least. Each night I would settle down to read these eerie stories to my partner 'Jenny' who was as much engrossed in these tales as I was. Some of these ghostly stories were about glitches in the fabric of reality, or 'Time Slips' which can effect past present and future. To hear one of these fascinating tales click here. These days you hear alot about the theory of time travel and with the age of  technology and modern day breakthroughs are we edging closely to inventing this, some scientist already are certain this feat of time travel will one day be possible. But what exactly is time travel? one thinks about revisiting the past or moving ahead into the future. But if one could time travel into the future, that future as I write this! must surely already be there. or the paradox being 'one cannot go!  where one is not existing'

For instance  if I decide to send dear old shep today into the future lets say 2040, then its obvious shep by all account is already dead. How can shep appear ahead of his own fate. This is a mystery and yet some scientist believe one day this will be possible, another strange thing which I feel has something to do with Time Travel, was when I pondered on a what seems to be a problem concerning time. I will do my best to explain what entered my head and as silly as it seems I feel like there could be beneficial information given the solution.

A man stands next to a tree trunk and decides to light it, for all intensive purposes
and without being to exact, we all know that tree trunk would burn for many hours
a day even.

yet if a man was the size of a flea and we create the exact same dimensions of the log
only this time we scake it all down next to the man flea,  if that man lit that log as before
would it still burn for hours percieved by the same man who is now the size of a flea?.

For all intensive purposes anyone would think the man who is now the size of a flea  would percieve yet again
that log burn for many hours!

But is this the case?. To my thinking if this is not correct then the law
of the universe is stranger again.

A man of normal height looking down would probably see it burn in seconds just like a matchstick!
However if the man the size of a flea, also percieves it to burn like the matchstick in seconds, something
is strangely bizarre.!

Anyway I am no scientist or physics master but thought I would share this with you!
I guess its just something to think about, and being very interested in Time Travel this thought of while ago!
