Gosh! Mark, thanks for reposting your oldie but
goodie piece, "Making Money With Article Marketing."
And a belated thanks for throwing kudos Marvel's way,
in a follow-up post way back when in 2009!
... Personally, I think the best article writer out there is ....
Guest!

What a shot in the arm seeing THAT was this
sultry summer morning!
You can have no idea how much I needed it
now, going on 3 tumultuous years later.
Today is the first time I saw it.
I am doubly wowed as your old post is dated
nearly 2 years after my brief writing spate ended.
Make that trebly wowed as Marvel wrote mostly
on private forums.
Tell me, former fan of mine--
Ohhh! you have got me going now!
Were we members of LEF Life Extension Forums
together?
Or were you on some bodybuilding group
I gloried in during my weight training days?
Maybe you, like me, are an unabashed animal lover
whose pampered cat--like my late pastel tortoiseshell
angora angel, Splash--had feline IBD for her first
eight-and-a-half years of life on this planet.
I can't begin to tell you the fun we had, me and Splash,
bathing her soiled angora britches in a bathroom
sink, or taking her with me into the shower when only
a full bath would do for her.
Then I began cooking for my cats from scratch.
The rawfood BARF diet plan cured Splash's
digestion in under a week.
Were you, Mark, a lurker on some fun feline
recipe exchange?
Somehow I must've made quite an impression
on you somewhere. Because until now it has been
awhile since I wrote anything on the internet, and
even longer since posting as Marvel.
Not that I tired of the handle.
It got usurped enough that I abandoned it.
Hmmm....
Maybe you are not referring to MY writing at all.
Well let me say here and now, Mark Austin,
I ACCEPT your compliment, DESERVED OR NOT!
It has got me finally to fill out my RRW profile :)
And has me indulging in visions of riches I might've
accrued had I the good fortune to come across
so flattering an opinion from anybody way back when.
See what a word of appreciation can do.
My head is swelling.
Actually no one can live up to being a best
anything at least not for long.
And although taken with a grain of salt it makes
me nervous to put up a first post here.
What if my fellow forum members don't agree with
such a high-falutin' assessment?
What if you all don't like me???
On a whim I tried registering for this forum under
my old pen name Marvel; it stuck.
But I have grown old with discouragement and time.
I long ago disinstalled Skype, MSN, AIM and every
other instant messaging. Only now filling out my RRW
profile did I learn of Yahoo's YIM.
And you may not believe this next but cross my heart
I learned of literary rights dubbed PLR less than
two weeks ago!
I joined this forum immediately.
As a lurker.
Now Mark has flushed me out.
How much I will be able to do writing or
otherwise is moot.
Too often I am weary, literally aching with fatigue.
But at this moment I am feeling downright
good again.
All warm and fuzzy inside.
If only for today.
Reading your acknowledgment did that for me,
too, Mark; thank you again.
Finally thanks for founding this forum.
And a GREAT BIG THANKS! to all my fellow
members for being here and welcoming us IM newbies,
and for letting us in on so many good tips and tricks!
I am so glad to have found you all.
Looking forward,
~Marvel
