  Words and characters sold. A little momentum

Both stories have had a few additions over the last few days. Everything has been in the 100 word/character range. Looks like the Ozzies are getting slightly political across the Tasman. That Bush countdown is pretty funny stuff. I guess I had envisaged the links being more for peoples businesses/websites, but I guess if there's something you're into and want to promote then you may as well link to that also. The link for the latest addition is a little more along the lines of my initial imaginings (check the Character Story)


Anyway, it's good to see the Australians getting involved in the stories. Currently, they have been part-written in USA, NZ, England, Sth Korea, and Australia......4 continents sounds pretty nice to me.

I've also been contacted by another tv journo from a NZ tv channel (that's 2 channels now interested in potential stories.....hopefully they happen). And I'm going to be on a Canadian radio station tomorrow for a 20 minute slot! I'm looking forward to that.....and I don't want to sound too ignorant, cause I'm happy to do all interviews at this stage, but it's a late night talk show in Quebec (French province) so I'm not too sure how many will be listening....but I'm still stoked to be on the show....I had a little listen online today and the radio host sounds like a pretty cool guy. You can listen to that at 6:35 pm NZ time (2:35am Quebec time!) by visiting CJAD and locating the live stream.

My second press release is finally out, and should filter out over the next few days so hopefully that is good for the cause.

And just in case anyone is wondering what the status is with my van, I currently don't know. I actually had a brief glimmer of hope yesterday. It got fixed in only a few hours, they replaced some wires which look great and it cost me under $100. I thought I'd gotten out of it pretty well, until I went there after hours at night to retrieve it. It didn't start. So this morning I authorized them to do a full tune up, which is going to cost a few hundred dollars...but my van definitely deserves it. The last I have heard was a message from them asking me to contact them.....that doesn't sound good to me, as yesterday the only thing I heard from them was "your car is fixed, come and pick it up". I'm half expecting some bad news, and will check it out tomorrow. I'm chucking in a picture of the said van...another visit to the mechanics some years ago.

Official blog of the first website (that I can find) to sell words on the internet to create a novel while providing online advertising. Crazy concept eh? Well actually, it's not that crazy, but since it's the first site to do it, it might just make me a millionaire. Let's all cross our fingers, and shoelaces, and anything else you may have, and hope it becomes a success.
