Looking For A Hobby, Triond and Athlyn.

All work and no play gets tiresome. I was looking for a hobby that could make me some extra money. Freelancing was the perfect idea.
I came across Triond.com in a Google search for 'freelance jobs'. The sign up was very easy and I was able to publish right away, make friends and add comments to other articles I liked.
I was a little disappointed by my initial earnings. For 4 articles, I earned 15 cents, over a 5 day span. I was sad that after a lot of research and time put in I wasn't making a dollar yet.
I began to bookmark my sites under the 'Content' tab to the little icons under 'Share'. (Google, Furl, StumbleUpon, Digg etc...) I saw a few more hits per articles/day. Yey!
I made a friend named Athlyn. She is a successful freelance writer who has many blogs and writes for a number of different pay per click and revenue share sites. She has won writing awards on the exclusive Suite 101 site, for published writers. I began to read her articles on how to make the most out of freelance efforts. She has been very helpful to me. I also began to read whatever articles I could find of hers and continue to update my schema about freelancing.
