Two New Articles and a New Book

Today I managed to write two new articles on Helium, and make a title for a third. The third one is a website review, and I started to get sleepy. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact there was a storm last night/this morning and I have been up since about 3:30 a.m.

But now I am up to 10 articles on that site, and I have three due on other sites on Sept 2nd. I also used my last bidding credit on elance, and signed up for oDesk. I had never heard of oDesk but I read an article about it on Helium. I still have to finish filling out my profile. It is supposed to work similar to elance, but with fewer limits and they take a larger commission. But there are no fees for writers, so it's worth exploring at least.

I would've done more, but I got to go to the bookstore! All these people are piping up about the State Fair, and as much as I enjoyed key lime pie on a stick a few years back I think I will like my new book much more. The book is called "The Child Thief" by Brom. (Yes, it's a writer with one name, like Sting or Madonna. Nonetheless, the book looks promising. )

I have often noted to those I know of my distain for Peter Pan -- that creepy boy from Neverland that picked on poor Wendy and then sat back and laughed with those bimbo mermaid girls. I never liked him, and now Brom has written a novel that exposes that herk for who he really is. I can't wait.

At any rate, I'm still sleepy and I want to at least get started on my book before I fall asleep.

TTFN!
