Tell me about your freelance gigs...

Just writing articles for Demand Studios on everything from the world's fastest cars to burn scars. It's a struggle to get paid well, but it can be lucrative (especially since unemployment is near an all-time high right now).

Do you send in your stuff unedited and they do all that? And do you get paid by the word or for the article? (Sorry I've been reading into this a bit lately)

The way it works is that they choose the titles, and then we claim them (sort of a "your assignment should you choose to accept it"). We write to the title within the parameters of the style guide, do our own proofreading, submit it, and wait for the review. If it passes muster, we get paid for it via PayPal. If it needs refining, it's rejected and we have to re-edit it and re-submit it.

Ah, thanks for clarification.

IJWTS I think Miles should explore his CF crush and I'm really glad to see Rob back.

IAJWTS that Max wore himself out enough playing with Bella that he slept through the night last night and only had to be taken out to the bathroom once. I, however, woke up every 20 minutes or so to make sure he was still on his dog bed (which, he was) so I'm verrrrrrrrrrrry tired this morning.

IAJWTS that the dogs are playing again already this morning and it's making me bonkers....in a good way, but bonkers all the same b/c I'm so freaking tired.

IJWTS that I am becoming quite annoyed with these particular nightmares. They do not reflect reality, yet how relieved I am when I awake from them!

IJWS how disappointed I am. Seriously.


Ps. How are you, deepgreen?

WD, I am doing a bit better. Some of my concerns were dismissed, while others were added on. Hopefully things will get taken care of soon. I found out the most important things though, and I'm so happy about that, God is doing quite a bit. Still needing prayer, as is the other heart involved. If and when you guys hear the story, it will shock you. Praise God!

IJWTS...save me, I'm lost...Oh Lord I've been waiting for You...[carolina liar]
