I will know if I will be getting paid by Wednesday, that is planned. I'm currently working on an article "Productivity the Mashable Way" (Title might change), and put in many hours into another article "120 + Resources for Bloggers" (again subject to change)
I guess I will see. He said it's a lot of work to handle, but if I can handle it, he would pay me to do it full time or become lead writer. Seems like very much work though, have to fire out an article from being given it within 20 - 30 minutes.
Wow. From one article to a full time job, use that as your next blog post title lol. Better ask Pete if you are eligible for workman's compensation if you happen to come down with wrist cramps or severe carpel tunnel.
I usually end up spending 3 hours per write up on my own site. It is tough work. Most of that time is spent reading and re-writing and then making the content look good in the wordpress text editor.
Oh and I wanted to mention, that it feels pretty damn good to have people respond and actually read what took you so much time to complete. I'm just a beginner with my site but I hope to gain a sense of feeling that people actually visit and read my stuff.
