Shortest "Unemployment" Ever
So I also had bad news in my email this morning. Her answer: Metblogs is closing down on May 31. My first thought: What about all my free tickets??? Heh. I don't get paid by Metblogs to write for them, but somehow all of us writers are pretty loyal anyway. It gets our name out, it gives us a portfolio and some credibility, and what the heck, it's fun too. And I'm the lucky Metblog writer that gets paid in comped tickets for any and every arts show in San Jose. BOO for losing that perk!!! So I was looking into starting up my own arts website. Although I have doubts that I can put as much time in as it would need, still, it would at least keep the tickets coming in. Erin was all for this too, as she (and other friends) also benefit from my tickets. But by this afternoon I had three requests to write for other places. I couldn't believe it! All three are great, but one I've had my eye on for awhile. That one said they'd be "ecstatic" if I accepted. Well I like the sound of that word, haha. So I'm waiting to hear more information from my #1 choice. And we'll go from there. I still may start up my own site if I'm not 100% happy with this one, I know I could do a good job or at least a good enough job to continue fueling my ticket requests. Writers can't really ask for much more. Posted by Pischina at May 22, 2010 2:55 PMComments
