I was still in the thick of a lot of family stuff going on at this point in April 2022. I only got one post published but I understand why.

Thoughts about this month’s income report:
This was a pretty good month for ad revenue but everything else was pretty dismal.
Did I Meet my Goals for April?
I had no goals other than writing posts.
Goals for May:
Keep writing posts. Note as I write this retrospectively: I’d like to add in an affiliate program in Teachable, but that raises my monthly expense substantially. Without any evidence it will bring me more revenue I can’t justify it right now. In March 2021 I was talking about adding this in, that’s why I mention it.
