I managed to use the word "prose" in a sentence. Luckily no one was around to notice or hear it. I'm assuming using such a word in a sentence is not a good thing.

Why or how did I use prose in a sentence? I'm still browsing lots and lots of freelance writing sites trying to decide which one or more sites I will eventually sign up for and stumbled across LifeTips. I was reading their standard lines/pitches to get people to sign up as a "guru". So many of their lines kind of rhyme sort of. The kind of poetic that doesn't rhyme in other words. Ok I realize poems exist without rhyming. In fact probably a majority of poems don't rhyme.

Anyway my first reaction to all those poetic sounding sentences was I like their prose. I thought that without even thinking about it.

Like I said I have found many many very similar writing sites now. Some seem like more of a social network with the added profit sharing sort of thing but emphasis on community as much as anything else while other seem to be more about nothing but driving traffic to articles while still others seem more about getting bids and selling work. All of them are different approaches to the same thing as far as I can tell. I really need to explore LifeTips a lot more before I even think about joining.

Upon closer inspection of LifeTips apparently once you're accepted as a "guru" you have to submit 101 apparently short tips your subject of choice. Or at least that many. Or that many every so many weeks or months. Whatever. Anyway at some point your pick what you think are your best 101 tips and LifeTips actually publishes these tips as a book and makes them available to both online and real-life book stores. I thought I'd see if they were full of it so I searched amazon for lifetips and to my some-what surprise there are actually lots and lots of lifetips books for order on amazon. Looks like the application process might be a bit steep though. Which I guess isn't necessarily a bad thing but I just hope I'm not rejected. I'm definately leaning towards signing up for LifeTips. Sure would be cool to have a copy of my own book to show to people!

On seperate note since my neck and shoulders have felt so stiff for so long I bought some of that "IcyHot" stuff. The version that comes in the form of a patch. It's the first time I've tried such a thing and it's kind of freaking me out. It's sort of like putting your hand in some ice water then putting said hand in some warm water. But in patch form. Maybe that's supposed to obvious from the name. Whatever.

Tomorrow, or more specifically 19 and 1/2 hours so from now, I have a job interview. With someone. For whatever reason it's at 5:00pm and at a hotel. First time doing an interview at a hotel. I'm assuming it'll be much like any other sort of interview. Never did get a specific job description in writing from the recruiter. Feel like I'm kind of going in blind. Maybe that'll be an idea for an article on of those many freelance writing sites: recruiters - stop being dumbasses. Or you're a recruiter, not a dick. I don't know just spit balling here.

I should probably go to bed now in preperation for said job interview. Wish me luck...
