Now I've e-mailed about a dozen companies saying I'll write for them. Well, about 6 or 7. They aren't about to go sending me e-mails back until Monday, this being a Sunday and freezing temperatures outside and all. The first one is for a Latino Magazine, writing articles, maybe on Literature and other lifestyle pieces. Another is for writing general articles and maybe an e-book? Now I'm not sure exactly. The third, writing "life tips," something I've found myself enjoying and relishing. I really hope they write me back.
In other news, Condolezza Rice has visited Palestine to fight off tensions in the middle east and, I'm sure, to show America that politians are dedicated to their diplomacy efforts as well as their war tactics. Abbas, however, said as much as just having her here to listen isn't going to do them any good. We hear all these news bytes about problems in the "Gaza Strip." Well, what's this Gaza Strip and what's so important about it? It's a little strip of land, bordered on the south by Egypt, on the West, by the Mediterranian Sea. Other angles are covered by Isreal. Isreal occupied the Gaza Strip until 2005, and finally the almost 99% Muslim Palestinian population was free. Sort of. There's still economic, cultural, and religious tension, and Isreal still controls the airways and sea ports. It's like the petri dish of all things strifeful in the middle east. That said, Conolezza Rice may have had her hands full, listening to the culture clashes between Fatah and Hamas. Which is another topic for another time.
Thankful today that, regardless of the bad weather, I have a book of poetry and a way to make some moola. Send away! Emails of learning...I'll write all your articles for you...and more than.
