Today was quite the surprise for me. When I woke up, I had an email in my inbox from James Mowery, a contributing editor for Performancing.com letting me know that a position had opened up. I don’t know the entire set of circumstances involved, but Raj Dash has decided to step down, away from Performancing. Just a few days ago, I sent off an email to James inquiring about some specifics regarding his job their. I asked if he thought I had what it took to write there and he believed I did.
Thanks to James and his references to me to the manager for Performancing, I was able to talk with Ryan Caldwell today and learned that I will be able to do a one month trial run to write for Performancing.com during the month of June. I’ve talked with a few people already about the position and they all agreed that it was a good position to take, considering how large of a site Performancing is, along with the amount of traffic the site receives.
So starting Monday, I will be writing for them. I will still do WordPress Weekly and I plan on publishing posts on this blog whenever I can, mostly on the weekends. If all goes well for me during the month of June, I’ll be writing for Performancing with James full time. James and I have talked before. He and I have quite a bit in common and I think both of us writing on the same site at the same time could only produce great things.
So thats the update from me. Stick around and see what happens as I take advice from my own blog post about creating opportunities through blogging.
Glad to be working with you Jeff. Hopefully we can do great things at Performancing!
James Mowerys last blog post..Facebook Is Not Only Trying To Be Twitter, It Actually Is!
I told James that Performancing would only get better with two pretty awesome such as yourselves :) Especially since you two like each other. I wish you good luck :)
Congratulations Jeff!
Not much else to add to that, but it sounds like a big step. You’ll do great!

@James Mowery – Yeah, will be interesting to see what we come up with between the two of us
@Sierra Koch – I think you understand my Twitter comment now lol. This whole idea of getting into Performancing.com seems like a big coincidence for me, but I’ll take it
@Foomandoonian – Thanks Fooman, only time will tell :)
congradulations Jeffro – it’s really nice to see good things happening for good people
Best of luck Jeff!
@Steven Hodson – Thanks Steve. I believe you are well on your way to being on the A List of bloggers. Not sure if that is your goal or not, but I think you have what it takes to be an A Lister, but without all of the crap attached to the status.
@Christina Warren – Thank you Christina.
