    It took me quite a while to get things rolling. I admire people who get their first paycheck in a few months. I am seeing things starting to improve slowly, which is encouraging. Amazon is still something that I have yet to figure out, as I am not seeing any sales there.

    Should be getting my first paycheck from the Earnings Program this month. smile Whoo! Unfortunately, since most of my traffic is coming from non-evergreen hubs, my new challenge is to maintain that income. Congrats to everyone making progress!

    I know the feeling.  I was so excited when I made my first dollar which was not too long ago.  There's no shame in earning a buck!  Congratulations to you. I am entering my 2nd month with Hubpages and it's been a very positive experience.  I enjoy writing and the community of writers are so encouraging and supportive.  Best wishes on more dollars smile

    I've been reading these responses and giggling to myself.  Isn't it amazing how EXCITED we get over a few measly pennies?  I swear if it was doing anything not related to writing for the sheer joy of doing it, we'd be offended.  My husband thinks I'm insane.  I spend hours and hours every week, brainstorming, writing hubs, creating hubs, posting hubs, tweaking hubs, studying how to make better hubs and I just go butt over tea kettle with joy for earning $.04.  Sigh...  It's a hubbing thing, he just wouldn't understand.

    Congratulations to everyone who is enjoying their monumental (or maybe not so monumental) rewards.  It's pretty cool to see even a few pennies roll in for doing something you love so much.  May we all forge into the future with our dreams of financial success!

    Everyone is doing so well!  Thank you for all your comments.  It's so great to see the momentum from a couple pennies to a dollar.  Then to see that dollar grow into more! 

    I ended last month with $4.07! 

    In a couple months I hope we are all on the "I made my first $50" board.  Keep up the good work

    Merry Christmas!
