As you can see in this schedule, some weeks you will have more work to do than others. Obviously, you can balance the tasks so as to not get overwhelmed. 

Here's a short list with some affiliate programs that you can use to make some money out of your ebooks:

Craftsy.com -- online craft classes (photography, drawing, quilting, cooking, baking and more). If you're a craft lover but aren't as skilled as you wish you can take some classes. Afterwards, you can use your new knowledge for craft ebook publishing and share your very own models and creations. In addition, you will be able to recommend those classes yourself and earn a residual income from the subscriptions. You can take these free online classes as a test drive and ensure that these classes are what you're looking for.

PLR Nook -- This membership site provides you with PLR recipes and food related articles each and every month. Many times these come with pictures so as to help you illustrate your own publication.

Kitchen PLR -- Another site that offers a wide range of PLR recipes that you can use in your ebooks. In addition, they also offer kitchen related products PLR reviews so as to enable you to get commissions from online stores if your readers buy from your back end offers or from your blog.
