Default Here's Why I Asked....

Hi Linda,

The reason I asked is that I have a small database of editors I send my articles to on a regular basis that I do very well with. I have about 130 email addresses in there and get a lot of press for myself. If you ever have articles on website marketing/ promotion/design/ online business practices or even home business general stuff I could submit them to my database for you. I have a friend named Donna(http://www.Parentpreneurclub.com) who writes articles geared towards the home entrepreneur and they have re-published her work a few times as well.

Actually, I've been collecting data to start my own article submission service down the road for many different categories but for now if you're interested in the above please let me know.
