Still vainly curious if there is a record for getting out yet. ;)

Edited on Sat Dec-25-04 06:45 PM by Longgrain

I entered the 700 club on Dec. 13 at 9:45 P.M. and reached 800 on Dec. 14 at 7:36 P.M. 21 hours and 51 minutes, if I did my math correctly :dunce: (I'm an artist so I never put much stock in math) :)

P.S. Congrats mscajun:party:

8. A writer?

What do you know? So am I! I haven't had anything published yet but I'm still looking...

As for the 700 club thing, I wasn't even trying to get out at first, I just had the afternoon off from work and started posting things in the Photography Group (yeah i do that too). Before i knew it i was at 750. I realized i could do it and thought I'd give it a try...

Plus I was involved in a friendly little post war with another DUer who I bet I could get out faster :hi: (you know who you are) so that also motivated me...

10. LOL A competition is a great motivator

what kind of writing?

Right now I'm writing articles for medical jourmals and magazines. I hate the statistics I have to labor through but the pay is really good. Sixty to 75 cents a word.

I used to do a lot of business writing but my articles were always more featurey with a progressive bent. You can get away with that in Minnesota.

PM me if you want.

Did you know there is a writer's group here on DU?

11. Mostly fiction

I would love to share them with anyone whose interested.
