So, after a dry spell of having no paid writing jobs, a fun one with decent pay has come along.
I did the usual post ad on Gumtree thing a couple of weeks ago and received little interest until Wednesday when I received a call from a man called Mike (also from Chelmsford) who runs a site called Apple Uncovered (www.appleuncovered.com) which is a blog focusing on new news (double word intentional) on Apple products.
After a second chat on the phone yesterday, Mike sent me an email with the details: I will be writing about new products on a frequent basis at £3 per article on a long-term basis. There were 8 links about things I was to write about and so I got to it.
The first article was about the new Apple HQ in CA which I knocked out in a couple of hours and was told is excellent and went straight online. 2 more have been written since.
Following on from the well-written article, I was told that if they continue to be of such a good standard, I'll be able to upload them myself. Not bad for my first article about something I know very little about.
So, hopefully this job will continue and I'll actually have something to do over the summer.
Pete is a happy man.
PS - all writing will be done better than this lazy blog post.
PPS - I'm 23 tomorrow. Happiness has suddenly gone :(
