It’s 8 a.m. on Friday. I’m in a little beach town in Santorini listening to a rooster’s crow cut through the swooshing palms overhead, and I’ve got San Diego on my mind, again. Why you ask? Well, partly because of the rooster, whose high pitch “Good Mornings” remind me of a Pepe, our diaper wearing cock who was part of our home in Pacific Beach. (We thought he was a chicken until one day…he spoke.)
The other reason I’m thinking about San Diego this sunny morning is that I’m about to resume work on my newest digital guide, Travel Thru San Diego: The Best Cheap Eats and Drinks, but first I wanted to let you guys know about Buggl’s latest initiative: Create a Travel Guide: Make $50 Instantly.
We’ve been creating travel guides for Buggl since it’s launch in winter, and it’s been exciting to see the platform grow, as more travel enthusiasts share their insider knowledge about destinations all across the world. I remember when I first started talking to founder Derek Bugley about the project when it was still in Beta. Then, he told me he wanted Buggl to be a sort-of Netflix for travel guides, where people from all walks of life, not just travel writers or bloggers, but chefs, surf instructors, bird watchers…anybody really…could easily create informative and good looking guides to highlight interesting, local spots in their cities or around places or things they love.
I’ve enjoyed watching Buggl grow over the last six months. We currently have eight travel guides on the platform, and each month, as more people join (it’s free), Buggl draws closer to Derek’s vision. And with this special July incentive, where authors can make $50 a pop per guide (10 max), I suspect July may be Buggl’s biggest month yet.
So, what are you waiting for? Go drop some travel knowledge about your favorite destination(s) and collect your Benjamins! If you have any questions about designing your first guide with Buggl, just drop me a note in the comments.

Man, this seems like an amazing opportunity for somebody like me. I am a very prolific freelance writer as it is, and by creating products you can earn from passively, it may be the start of freeing myself from the income = time problem!
What a clever chicken you had. Well I was curious about this diaper wearing cock you had, and I was amazed by the relationship you had with the chicken. I’ve never thought of adopting a chicken as a pet, and to have a living alarm clock.. that would totally make me feel like I’m in a farm. Don’t chickens/roosters crow at as early as 4 in the morning? Our neighbor used to have one.
Well anyways, I think I want to try creating a travel guide.. $50 is not bad hmm..
