There are many good sites that pay (for which I do write)

Really, Dan? I haven't been able to find them. Unless we define "many" and "pay" differently.

Most men can always sneak another rifle into their gun cabinets because the way most women count guns when they dust is: one, two, three, many. If that's how you define "many" sites, I won't argue the point. But to me, that's "a few," not "many."

For me, "pay" is defined quite simply. I send them the words and/or photos, and they send me a check. Any other system used by a website (like the infamous, 10 cents/hit method) is either "public relations" or "marketing." I do those things, too, in the real world, for considerably more than most web sites dream of paying.

So, if you agree with the way I define "many" and "pay", and that's who you are working for, I'd sure like to see a list of those sites privately.

but I do agree with you in that we should be paid for our work.

Is there any other reason to work?
