$3 for an article is criminal, Original, but then so is $40,000 for a year's education.

Original Influence,
I guess that's why they call us "starving artists".  I agree, it is definitely a labor of love.  I'm pleased to have found this site.  It keeps my writing skills in shape.  I'm learning so much from you all.  :)  Thanks.

OriginalInfluence,
I've seen some of the writing gigs posted:  $10 for a poem and not much more for a full piece of fiction.  I better keep my day job.

Man, I wish I could get 20 bucks on one of my blogs...I keep strumming along but definitely won't quit a day job at this rate!

It's gotta be a labor of love. Then you'll find the gold.

I guess today making a buck is much harder than it should be.

I'd be glad...
if i even could make those 20 dollars...i am contributing to a Detroit mag, i have written for different ezines, but never managed to make gold out of my passion...and i want to be recognized a music journalist, i wanna make money out of this passion...this is the reason why i am leaving France next Summer!
