You will also receive payment for every time someone views any of your referrals' blogs, pictures, profile, etc.

Teen book project

"Out of Control" --Teen Anthology PAY: $100I am just looking for uplifting stories about how teenagers see theworld. What was done right and what was done wrong, from theirviewpoint. How did things work out for them? The stories should be fromin the approximate range of 600 words to 6000 words. Illustrations canbe included also as part of the story. For each story used, a fee of$100 will be paid. Also, when published, I would like to send you acopy of the book for taking the time to help. The idea is only to have teensand young adults see that they are not the only ones that certainthings have happened to and also how people worked through things. This willgive each and everyone of us relief. The whole project is a non-profitproject. Any money made will go first to publishing the book, then backto projects for teens. People who have already helped on this projecthave done so through pure love of kids. No one involved with thisproject expects any personal gain for any efforts made. The whole ideais teens to help teens.
