I’ve just picked up my first paid writing gig – Mark over at Weblog Tools Collection posted a brief note a couple of days ago indicating he was looking for someone to take over the daily theme and plugin release entries. Well, I’ve relied on those for a long time as my best source for new utilities for WordPress, and I’ve been disappointed recently that they’ve been inconsistent, and I’ve always wanted to start making a little money doing something I love – so I jumped on that and contacted Mark to express my interest. Today, my first entries have appeared, which I’m very, very excited about. I’m not certain about the exact readership statistics at this point, but I know that the feed shows over 5500 subscribers, which is the largest readership I’ve ever written for. It’s a bit intimidating, really, but I think it’s also going to be a lot of fun. It’s just nice to finally be putting my writing skills to good use. Granted, right now it’s simply making lists, but hey, a guy’s gotta start somewhere, right?
