While on vacation this summer, I was contacted by PC World and asked to write a how to article about making custom Facebook pages. The terms were really good and I had enough time to work on it so I said yes.
The article appeared this week and can be viewed here.
I write short blog posts for this site all the time but I haven’t written a long article since I was in graduate school. Even though I knew what I wanted to write, I had a hard time sitting down and doing it. I also found while I was working on it that I was very easily distracted. I had to keep reminding myself that this was actually for pay and not for a grade in school.
I am, however, pleased with how it came out and that I branched out a little and did something new. I may be doing more but that isn’t certain yet.
I hope you find the article useful and it helps in making custom Facebook pages.

Great article Kim – congrats on the accomplishment. Writing is hard – it’s one of the reasons I don’t offer just blogging packages anymore, but rather a mix of blogging + social media.
Hi Vered – Thanks! Yeah, I don’t think I could be a full-time writer but I was pleased about this opportunity.
Hi Kim,
Congratulation, As webmaster for our company do I keep getting requests from colleagues, friends and acquaintances who want help opening a Facebook and get help with anything or have problems with their Facebook pages. I will save this exceptional article from you Kim on PC World and give it to anyone who wants to know and learn more about Facebook.
Hi Marbella – Thanks so much!
Kim, I read your acticle on PCW. It was very well written and well supported by images. Now and then if you can introduce such long posts here it would be nice too !
Hi Sam – Thank you. If I wrote articles here as long as the one on PC World I wouldn’t be able to post very often – they are very time consuming. I also got paid for that ;-)
Oh really! Never thought if it was a paid post… Learnt a new thing today !!
Yes, it was for the publication and they pay their authors.
So proud! Way to go – This is very exciting. Great article!
Thanks Tawnya! :-)
