Okay, so it's been a while. Getting distracted with my "regular" job, selling cruises and just life, I stopped writing. The good news is, when I went back to check my accounts, I had money. It isn't even the amount that is important, it is the fact after more than 1 year of not doing anything, the money is still adding up. Ehow changed everything around and I suppose I missed getting on board so they are done. Helium is still going on but they changed the way they pay out. They no longer pay based on writing/rating stars, but now have assignments. Some are only $1.00 but some are more and of course the ad revenue is still adding up. They still have their contests and this week I won first place, $15.00, so in less than 1 month, not much time I've made nearly $90.00. This does include just over $50.00 of left over revenue. I will continue more here in detail...got to go write some articles, trying to win another contest.
