$295! Did I mention that the adult review site paid me $295 for writing the reviews of their porn sites? That’s £169 in our money. Sure the sites were disgusting and an affront to feminism, but I got the money. Can it be any worse than working in a dead-end job where you hate yourself for being weak? If this carries on, it could be a full time job. And the miracle I need to stop me going bust. The other 2 writing jobs are looking goof too. They are interested in my stuff, but haven’t parted with... Sign in to see full entry.

Dr who
Dr who This Easter weekend, we have a new Dr Who series. I loved the Chris Ecclston stuff, and the new guy seems OK. Strange how time travel can capture the imagination. If we could solve anything, it should travel through time. What else would there be to solve after that? You could go back and ask Jesus, just what the hell was he thinking off! Go to Roswell and see if it really crashed. Ect…. I think we would come to terms with how we live in time. Our passage through time. How we deteriorate... Sign in to see full entry.

Funny!
Funny! Its funny when you write for a living all day, when it comes to writing a blogg, you just can’t be bothered to write about anything sensible. After all who the hell is going to read it? Just written more stuff about call centres around the world. You try to put a brave face on it, but the truth is, these poor bastards haven’t got a hope in hell. It’s a new slavery, that’s destroying the world. But that’s not what the punter wants to hear. So I lie. I’ve even written stuff about mood... Sign in to see full entry.

Coming round
Coming round It looks like I might be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. It’s a bloody dark tunnel mind, and I’m not out of it yet. But the writing things are just coming off. There is plenty of work I’m even writing about medical matters. Reviews for drug! The concrete thing looks good, with 2 weeks to write a piece on software in the industry. Call centres man has not got back to me, so I fear the worst there. But the adult thing, looks wonderful. If they don’t rip me off I could make... Sign in to see full entry.

Adult content!
Adult content! I’ve just completed a review of several adult sites. As yet I haven’t made a penny piece from it, but it looks like easy money. If it’s a scam, it’s a bloody elaborate one, but I don’t think it is. If this comes, off it will save my bacon. There are plenty of other writing job, none of which have paid me yet, and I don’t even know if they are going to use my material. But I keep struggling on. I found that my Web service has pulled my web site: Tinwell Books, because I did not pay... Sign in to see full entry.

IRA! Denis Donaldson
IRA! Denis Donaldson With the death Denis Donaldson the informer from Sinn Fein, in County Donegal on Tuesday, the temperature is hotting up. It reads like something out of an airport novel, but this guy just came out and admitted he was the informer. Turns out, that special Branch had told him his cover was to be blown! Now why the hell would they do that? One of the most important informers British intelligence has ever had, and they go and let the press blurt it out. Can you believe the...

The battle goes on
The battle goes on The writing is coming on, but the although the stuff is getting turned out, there is no sign of any money. I’ve been doing some strange stuff for one blogg web site, but the money is so poor, it can only be a CV helper. The adult stuff is looking better, but I don’t think the money will come in time to save me. It’s looking more and more like I’ll have to take some sort of dead end job. I’m not afraid, but feel I’ve let down the spirit of all I’ve worked for. What I need now... Sign in to see full entry.

Breakthough?
I think I might have a breakthrough with one of my web writing projects. The other two are looking good too, as the web master love the copy. No money from any of it yet. I have about 3 weeks left before the last of my money runs out, and I have to take a dead end job. But optimistic about the big project. Can’t say what it is, as people might be funny about adult web sites. The sad thing is, that just as my life picks up, my one remaining cat: Madame, looks like she’s on her last days. She is...

Almost there, a Bloggers dream!
Almost there, a Bloggers dream! Well I’ve complete on assignment at about 4,000 words, and well on the way to being half way with the other. The guy who wanted the mobile phone thing, settled on a series of pieces about setting up your own business and working from home. Here I had a real problem, as I had to go into the realms of tax. Now tax in the UK and tax in the US are very different. So I hope I’ve skirted around company law to make it convincing. The call centre thing is wonderful. I get... Sign in to see full entry.

Call centres!
Call centres! I’m now an expert on call centres, in Canada, USA and Mexico. Tomorrow I’ll move on and conquer the rest of the world. Provided I get up early enough to do it. The guy loves them! Even thought I was a Canadian. But the amount of work I have to do for them all is crushing. I’ve worked it out at about 10,000 works a day! Even when I was writing the novel I could not do that. How do you write so much and keep it snappy? The war goes on. Steve Sign in to see full entry.
