Re: $1 for an Article???

Some of my shorter, easier-to-write articles - more like blog entries, really - sell for five bucks because they're only a few hundred words long and took all of half an hour to write (including revision and proofreading). They just aren't worth much more to me because they're not complicated and do...

Re: Superstar Authors

I wouldn’t really call myself a “superstar” – no dead-tree anthologies of my creative nonfiction in any bookstores yet, after all – but I have had moderate success here at CC. How long have you written for the site? Err…a few years or so? I really don’t remember – it’s been a while, though. How many...

I e-mailed support when I had to change my address. They took care of it for me. :)

Re: Most times you've sold an article?

I sold one article's usage rights three times. Most of the rest have been sold once so far.

Gail: if they have, then mine's MIA. I'm guessing that they're still delayed because of all the big changes 'round here lately. :)

It's not like I've never experienced the joys of intellectual property theft. Usually it's offline, though, when it happens to me. So I do know that this sort of thing happens. This isn't the first time, and I'm sure it won't be the last for me, either. If I can't deal with that, then I'll hang up t...

I'm just tired of the whole mess at this point. The article ripoffs have happened to me several times in the last couple of months or so. Mostly, it was the stolen credit card "testing" thing. So I see article sales...then they disappear...and at this point, I don't even get confused about...

One of mine was ripped off too. Constant sent me an e-mail with instructions on how to go about having something done about that. I already mailed the letter, so I hope that things get moving quickly. Man, do I ever hate thievery. I don't care if I AM "just" an Internet writer. It's mine, ...

Oooh, Writer's Market! Excellent resource. The new edition usually comes out shortly before my birthday in mid-October, so you might have to wait a while for it yet. But in the meantime, the public library probably has a copy of the '07 edition. You can, if nothing else, give it a look to get an ide...
