I've been offered the ability to make some income and boost my writing profile in the process. The major issue at play is that of rights and ownership. Any content I submit for publication that their editors approve will no longer be mine. They'll have sole rights to it from then on. This also means I won't be able to cross-post content here or at other places online. I'm not sure whether hyperlinks are acceptable or not, but I will ask.
This could be a break of sorts, but I'm a little uncomfortable signing everything away. Still, I am strongly leaning towards this option. Money is a powerful incentive. Should I proceed forward, this blog may look a little sparse from now going forward. Until this moment, I've used this site as a repository for almost everything I write. That's likely going to change.
I am pretty so I read this more than any one else. So no one will care if this looks sparce. Does this hurt your anti-capatalism argument if you actually have a job. You do know the communist version of unemployment is a labor camp. You should be more thankfull than most you live in the US.
