I saw that Francis Ford Coppola internship ad yesterday - Oh how I wished I was 20 years old again! How fabulous would that internship be. Travel, wine, writing.
Ah, back to my reality - which is pretty darn good itself.

@ Robin
I thought the same thing! How great would it be to be 21 again and ready to explore the world through wine! What a cool opportunity. Plus, it’s Coppola! You could ask him about “The Godfather,” “Apocalypse Now,” and you could even ask him, “‘Peggy Sue Got Married?’ What were you thinking???”
Good luck to whoever gets it!

Good luck to whoever lands that Francis Ford Coppola internship. I agree with Robin, what a great opportunity for a young writer!
Good morning everyone.

Nice start Jodee, but one thing, the date today is the 19th. LOL
I submitted to this one: Bloggers with Online Education Experience Needed - US. Hopefully I will get a response since it seems to fit the bill with me just right. Will keep ya’ll posted.

@ Nicole: Today is the 19th…all day?
Seriously, though, thank you for pointing that out. I must have been a little distracted when I did that this morning.

@Jodee
Yes Ma’am it sure is all day. Don’t worry we won’t hold it against you, you give us jobs/work. Have a great day hun!

Hey everyone, just curious if anyone has worked with textbroker.com? I saw it and thought it might be worth a shot. Any info would be appreciated!

Jodee, Deb:
I want to thank you for all the work you do. I originally came here looking for writing jobs in my niche (motorsports), but was able to find an awesome job as a technical writer for linux.com. It is an excellent oppertunity which I know I will enjoy. I know the hard work you two put in means a lot to all of us.

@ Nicole: All I do is post the leads; you guys get them because of your qualifications!
@ Cesar: Congrats on the new job! We love it when you share your success stories here.

Now…if only I liked wine.
If Coppola would like to send me on a margarita tour….that could be possible.
June 20th, 2008 at 8:35 am
I love wine, but I’m too old apparently. I thought of emailing my nephew, but even he would be too old because he finished college three years ago.
Did make me wonder if any of the area vineyards are hiring help. I’d LOVE to work for a vineyard.

I’m well over 21, but just finally finished school last year. If I didn’t have a small child at home, that Coppola gig would be calling my name.
June 23rd, 2008 at 5:04 am
I’m a regular lurker, and I just wanted to say “thanks”.
One of the opportunities you listed in this post worked out really nice for me!
June 23rd, 2008 at 6:07 am
@ Anna: I’m glad you decided to post. Congrats on getting the gig and I hope we will hear from you more often!
