Three Year Old Secret?
Remember when JMTC was the shining star amongst gold blogs? Yes, it still is the largest in terms of sheer traffic, but something has been missing since I left. In my egotistical manner I used to believe that it was simply because I wasn’t writing here anymore. In actuality, and I have commenters from this past week’s posts to thank for the personal epiphany, the truly crucial and lacking component was the reasoning behind why strategies I wrote about actually worked. Instead of just writing “here’s strategy X” and “it works,” I used to write my reasoning behind applying a gold tip and in this way I provided value to every reader of the blog, not just the ones directly impacted by a specific post.
JMTC was a crucial part of many of your successful auctioneering experiences because of this simple element within my writing. I truly believe that anyone can do the same thing I did with the right mindset and motivation.
The New Team of Experts
That being said, we don’t need a hundred random voices contributing here at JMTC. It was an interesting idea, but in practice proved to be far too much work to make a reality. Organizing the posts, editing, correcting, etc proved to be too much for me and far too many weak posts made it through. Not that the writers as a whole did a bad job, I blame myself for most issues, but there’s a forum for these writers after all instead of the front page. What we really need are a handful of truly dedicated writers who can stay on top of the game and also manage their own posts on this site. If you think you’re up to the challenge, then be sure to read the following requirements!

Time to take the next step...
Running Just My Two Copper has been the greatest experience online I've ever had but it's time I stopped kidding myself that I'm capable of doing this all on my own.
Just Kidding. You should see the look on your faces, priceless!
But seriously, Just My Two Copper is looking for talented writers for both weekly and daily columns in order to add even more value to the site. These posts will be in addition to the ones I write on my own, so readers here will be treated to a similar experience to sites like wow.com. A posting schedule will also encourage visitors to come more than once per day which will mean more community growth and discussion.
