Passive Income and Microstock Earnings for January 2010

By Cory • Feb 1st, 2010 • Category: Business of Illustration

It’s a new year. The month started off kind of slow, but it seemed to pick up at the end. Overall, I’m still down from my best month, but it looks like it is my second best month ever. It is also way over December’s numbers, so the Christmas slump is over.

Here’s the breakdown:
