Stylish Suzy
Remember how I mentioned that my recent Vogue purchase was research? I’ve been doing some fashion and beauty writing for the San Francisco edition of Examiner.com. It’s fun, but it’s more work than I anticipated. I have to come up with three story ideas a week, get any additional information I need by phone or in person, write the articles, and take photos and upload them. Whew.
The writing part turns out to be the easy part, but I’m not sure if I can keep up with the articles, my blog, and my email along with everything else that has to be written. I guess we’ll see. It can be an experiment!
All this for being paid by the click. But I’m used to being underpaid, and it’s fun. Check it out and tell me what you think. Any ideas, comments, insight, or spring shoes are much appreciated.

I checked out the Examiner, I find your work interesting and well put together, keep it up and if the money is not good at the moment, perhaps someone will recognize your work and be better compensated with more jobs, being persistant can do this for you, in my opinion anyways….
Hope the Examiner people check out the comments from your apprecitive audience! If you get enough…maybe they will bump up not only your profile, but your $$$$$$… Here’s hoping.
Guy, I hope you too left a comment too…. We’ve got to help this girl out & do our bit. She is really good at putting pen to paper.

You guys are so sweet. I think they go by the click, not the comments. I’ve only done a few, so I have to give it time. It’s good experience. I hope it might lead to more money. We’ll see!
Am I the only one who finds the commercial appropriation of guerrilla gardening really amusing? The revolution will be turned into an opportunity for capitalist profiteering.
