In case you haven't noticed. I've started writing for Buffalo's Examiner.com. The website has "city" sites of places all over the US.
Basically Examiner.com just opened up their "Buffalo" city version & they are still looking for writers for a lot of different topics in various categories. Weekly they ask you to on average write 3-4 articles, 150 words or more. You actually earn money by promoting your page/articles and the traffic generated to your articles.
You can apply on the site & learn more by going to Examiner.com or even my page at
http://www.examiner.com/x-12312-Buffalo-Concerts-Examiner. If you do end up applying to write any of the sections, please select me (Leah Falkowski) as the examiner that referred you (or by my examiner number #12312).
There are so many topics open in every city still. & you can also make up your own topic (Twilight examiner, Harry Potter examiner etc...) Go check out the website & if it is something you are interested in, it won't hurt to apply!
I mean, I've written two articles on bands playing Kiss the Summer Hello (

http://www.examiner.com/x-12312-Buffalo-Concerts-Examiner~y2009m5d29-The-Brothers-Blood-Tour-feat-Kevin-Devine--concert-preview ). It's pretty much open ended, you get out of it what you put in...
I decided to do it because I could use it on my resume/get back into my writing and in turn promote my photography. :) It's perfect for people that like writing & have other things to promote within their topics, since I'm the concert examiner I can promote my friends when they are coming into town, haha. It's a win win situation and I can earn a little bit of money while I'm at it.
So if you have any more questions, let me know. & let me know if you do apply & what you apply for :) (& don't forget to say that I referred you please!)
xoxo audio love :)
