Potter Nut

I’ve never been one for frivolous expenses. In fact, I can be quite cheap. Still, there some things in this world that put my self-control to the test, like this:

I'm being tempted by the devil.

For the uninitiated, in Book 7 of the Harry Potter series, a very important book figured in the story. JK Rowling actually handmade the damned book. There are only 7 original copies in existence, and one was sold in a Sotheby’s action for a whopping £1,950,000 (that’s pounds sterling, mind you).

Now, as much as I want to shell out almost 2 million quid for a book, I can’t. (Unless, of course, I marry Donald Trump, but I’m not his type. Or invent a cure for eczema.) I can, however, probably, possibly get the mass-produced collector’s edition version.

So the big question is: Do I have it in me to spend $100 on a book that I will probably read three times a year for the rest of my life? I have until the 4th of December to find out.

Article Freebies For Anyone Interested – Seriously

Freelance writing online is a dangerous business. There’s always the risk of meeting spurious ‘clients’ who might do a runner after you’ve delivered your end of the bargain. What these people don’t understand is writing isn’t as easy as it sounds, especially really good writing. We put in the time and the effort for painstaking research just so we can make our clients happy, so it’s definitely unfair to be left uncompensated without so much as a ‘buh-bye’. That hurts. That hurts a lot.

Such is what happened to one of my very good friends. She’s an awesome writer who’s practically working for peanuts when she’s worth so much more, so really, she doesn’t deserve such a treatment. Nobody does. But hey, who says she’s just going to lie down and take it? She’s now giving away these articles for free for anyone who wants it, so if you’re in need of content, these ones are up for grabs! Here’s what she says:

FREE 200 SECTION/CATEGORY DESCRIPTIONS FOR THOSE BUILDING CLONES LIKE BUZZLE.COM AND EZINEARTICLES.COM!!!

I kid you not. I am giving away these section/category descriptions for free – 50 free descriptions per person. I have 200 of them to give away.

THE STORY

Weeks back, I was commissioned by Writebros aka Danny Wyler aka dwyler2@gmail.com to write them. I was so gullible I not only worked for him even though he hadn’t technically awarded me the project yet, I saw nothing wrong with his terms: no downpayment, full payment only upon project completion.

GETTING SCREWED SEVEN WAYS TO SUNDAY

Well, guess what? After I sent in the last batch of section/ category descriptions, I saw neither mail nor shadow of Danny Wyler. I want to pay that ass back by giving away the descriptions I made for him. Each one exceeds 100 words (some go up to 180 words), by the way, and describes the articles you could find in each section or category. For example, it describes the kinds of articles you could expect to find in the Fastin Section.

The ordering of the sections (or categories) is identical to that of ezinearticles.com

AND NOW, FREEBIES

So, if you need section descriptions, let me know. Those are worthless to me at this point, so you might as well have 50 of them; others can get the remainder. Or, you can make me a ridiculously low offer, say $30, for all 200 descriptions, and I’d even toss in two About Us pages – which I made for that a-hole, too.
