A friend, one who loves me enough to tell me the whole truth, asked me if I might be a workaholic.

Kristen King, over at Inkthinker has set a goal of earning $100,000 in 2008 with her writing. Part of her method is aiming at getting more efficient and she refers to my Time Tracking post a couple of years ago.

Back when I first self-published (Powerfully Recovered if you’re curious) there were just a short handful of companies that offered the service. Now it’s a whole industry!
