Workin' Away

I signed up for Textbroker. I'll probably hold off on writing anything until after the new year, but they gave me a ranking of 3 to start out with. I'm curious to see what sort of assignments they have. I'm also going to check out some other content sites. It's not what I'm dying to do, but...it's a paycheck right now, and that's what's important.

The romance is with Lindz. Gonna draft a summary and query letter at some point. I think the fantasy needs another 3-5,000 words to "fit" everything that needs to go in and give my villain some teeth, but it should still top out at under 100,000. Hallelujah.

Went on a cleaning binge at one AM. That's how the freelancer life rolls. Now I just have to sweep and the place will look magnificent. I must sweep and not vacuum, because apparently my Dirt Devil or Dust Devil or whatever it is is a wee bit too powerful for my aged power grid, and let's be frank, I don't need no more shorts.

Am not quite sure what is up with my tech writers. The last few days have been an orgy of rewrites - my "techies" are usually pretty solid, but maybe they've been into the spiked eggnog this week. It's nothing coffee and a judiciously applied delete key can't handle, but it makes for a long workday.

Oh, and now one of them is using British spellings. Sigh. Off to cannibalize him.
