Wow. Thanks, Asbjorn. In response to your questions: the blog wasn't ready for public consumption when I accidentally hit "publish" last night. I'm working on getting it corrected as we speak.
I'll absolutely take your advice and make those modifications ASAP.
OK, not really knowing what specifically needs to be done, here's my plan:
The Ebook is being edited as we speak, so it's not ready yet. (Emergency hospital visit yesterday threw my schedule off. Don't worry -- the baby is fine, it was a false alarm.

)
I'm dedicating the next 48 hours to geting all of my funneling-blogs up and running, and then I'll finish up the Ebook while Google crawls the blogs. If any of you who are willing to help could set up blogs around the keywords below, preferably all on blogspot with "Arananthi" as an author, that would be really helpful.

"Eating for your Blood Type" is apparently a pretty popular book, but again, only ezinearticles for major competition. It would be possible to set up a funnel site that took advantage of people looking for reviews or something. I've already got the book on hold at the library. 6,380 pages, 171 visitors per day. This one is up and running (only one post at the moment though)
"Eating Disorder Help" has no big names on the first page of Google at all, but also is going to be kind of tough to relate. I can do it, but it'll be somewhat tangential. 18,400 pages, 93 visitors/day.
"Nausea after eating" has Yahoo Answers and a bunch of medical sites, none of which has huge PageRank. This would be even tougher to leverage into my topic, though my mother-in-law (the nutritionist) has some ideas on how to get it linked in well. 14,400 pages, 141 visitors/day.

I've got some posts from other places that I can copy onto each and edit to fit, so the first couple of posts on each blog won't be an issue. I'm figuring on going round and adding a new post per week to each, all geared toward spreading great info first, but absolutely I'll put more emphasis on the "go here, buy this" early on in each, as per your advice.
Currently, the domain I've got to my name isn't relevant at all (
Majik.be), but I'm thinking of adding a relevant pagename like
www.majesstix.com/how-to-eat-food.html or something like it, at least until I can get enough to use godaddy or something to purchase a domain name to redirect.
If someone could HTML up a sales letter page (I know nothing, so anything like a background/color scheme and some text boxes would be great; I've got Dreamweaver to edit with), I've got some testimonials of my mother-in-law's skills and a success story or two of my own to put up, as well as some strong ideas based on a marketing campaign that I started to write up, but just didn't have the sexy keywords I hoped it would. Basically the "anti-cancer, anti-heart attack, anti-diabetes, anti-infertility, anti-Alzheimer's diet", but not written all in a row like that. ;p
Please ask any and all questions that would be helpful in further setting things up. I'm awed at your collective offer, and I want to do anything I can to make it valuable.

On the positive side, I was able to give the electric company a large payment from all of the donations that people have provided me (You guys are mind-bogglingly charitable people), so my cut-off date has been moved back to August 1st. (Hooray!!) That will give me an extra couple of weeks to make the leftovers plus July's bill (a total of somewhere around $180), which, with all the expertise building behind me, I don't see myself failing at.
If I could relieve the church of some of the burden of paying my rent, too, I will fall down on my knees and try to send each and every one of you a batch of my wife's superbrownies.
Thank you again, everyone. The more I feel your support building behind me, the more I am determined to be a success story that all of you can be proud of. Let's light it up!

P.S.: Yes, Asbjorn, I am on a diet: basically the one that I describe on the blog you saw.
