Comedy Writer joins forum

Hello everyone,

I guess why I joined the forum is so I can pass the time looking for jobs to do when I'm not attending school.

I mostly want to make money here writing articles and what not.

However, I can't access most of the forums here. I'm going to guess because I'm new and I need a lot more posts. I'm not 100% sure, but it's a hunch. Maybe someone can post a link on what I need to do.

I can't even find the FAQ.

I have been coming here for a long time though to find answers, which has given me the three Digital Points to live by on how to make money on the internet.

1. You won't get rich quick.
2. You can't scam people to make money. (I guess you can, but it's wrong and it'll catch up to you.)
3. You're going to have to put in just as much work as anything else to make a living at it.

And that is what I intend to do.

So if you need a comedy writer/comedy article writer just pm me. I'd be glad to do some business with you.

Oh, and I have a blog. It's really neat.

Welcome!

Yeah, you need to have more posts to access some of the forums and for some things you need to be a member for 7 days.

Either way, welcome!

 

Yup welcome to DP, and hope you can earn some over free time while not attending school

 

Hey sweetcheeks. Welcome to DP. We all love a funny thread around here.

I checked out your blog. It looks like it could be really interesting, but I find it really hard to read. You should change your blog theme and space out your paragraphs properly.

The story seems pretty catchy though. Are you writing it yourself?

 

Yes this is the story I am writing. This however is not supposed to be funny

(unless you're sick and twisted, then laugh I suppose.)

Yes I found out it is difficult to read as well. Not too many formats you can post in blogger though. I myself do not like reading books on a computer, I prefer them in book form, but what is one to do, eh?

I might fiddle around a bit more with the settings, see if I can make it a bit easier to read.

I would love someone to review it (mind you it is a first draft of the book, which will be changed quite a bit as I write more) even though it's not complete.

 

I personally use Wordpress as a blog platform, and although the learning curve is steeper than Blogger, I like the functionality of it better. There are endless themes to pick from too. I actually just finished customizing the theme for one of my own blogs. I'm not sure if you can do that with Blogger...

But anyway, I do know there are still quite a few templates to pick from. Just find one that isn't white text on black background. And make sure there is spacing in between paragraphs or no one will take the time to read it.

Good job on the actual story though. It reminds me of a Stephen King novel.

 

Thanks.

I guess I might have to use HTML in order to get what I want (ugh, I chose blogger so I wouldn't have to use code).

I thought white on black was better because it didn't strain the eyes as much. Plus it gives it a darker feel.

Maybe I should use yellow text on a white background...hmm...

 

In my case, white on black strains the eyes more the black on white.

And NOOOO, don't use yellow on white. Please!

Changing the code is so easy when you're just messing with colors. Just pick a color from the hex map and change it in the template.

I totally get you with the darker feel though. It would go well with your story. Let me see if I can find something that would work but still be easy to read.

 

Ok, how about this one? http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5442/340/1600/mrbrown.jpg

It's still dark but the post background is white.

 

That's not too bad. Check my site again, see if you like the new one. Also I spaced all the paragraphs apart. Took me like 2 minutes.

 

Loads better. Good job.

 

Woah, these forums are more like a chatroom than a forum. Some of the other forums I stop by take days for a post. This is more like a few minutes.

 

It depends. Some threads never go answered. You have to pick really good titles or no one will read them.

 

and you have one of the more interesting introductions too.

 

Hey Devin,

You're from Ann Arbor? My family lives there. Neat.

 

well im not really from AA but i'll be living here for a few years.

 

Going to Eastern or U of M?

 

am at U of M.

 

So you're on this forum in order to pay for it then lol

 

I spent some time looking around your blog. Quite nice Congratulations.
