Truth. I loved contributing articles to the school paper whenever I felt inspired to write something about the auto industry, state and federal government, or whatever. Then I joined the writing staff full time thinking it would be fun, but deadlines sucked the joy out of it. They also started to ask that I write more about things occurring on campus.

Nothing goes on at a school with under 4000 students, unless you count girls softball.

The problem with writing blogs and articles for an internet publication is that no matter what you say you will get a shyt ton of posts bashing your writing. You will see more people dissecting your article and pointing out why you are an idiot or how your grammar is technically wrong rather than actually commenting on the content. This i learned reading through almost every entry on Jalopnik when there was the next top car blogger contest a few months ago. I'm glad I don't actually do this for a living, Id probably shoot myself. As much as I like cars, I think people like that suck the fun out of it.

LOL, Jalopnik has devolved into a cess pool of stupidity. I now contribute nothing but 4chan-style posts to all the morons there who have the depth of a wading pool. Its too bad, because sometimes Jalopnik has interesting content. Its when their writers attempt to display depth and knowledge of any sort that they come up short.

Autoblog still manages to be worse.

So, you've registered on my forum, which I've been working on for TEN years, to attempt to hire people to write for YOUR upstart site?

Let's see... What would happen if I entered your forums and posted links to some of our great content? I'm pretty sure that account would get banned.

Looks like most of the articles on that site are plagiarized from other sources, with a few words changed here and there, by someone with a poor command of the English language.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I'll await an explanation.

[toovo1985]

I thought this would be a good place to find people interested in writting about cars. But I can imediatly delete the topic.
As for the forums they are supposed to generate discussion and exchange of knowledge. Unless it was considered spamming I wouldn't delete your link to your content.
As for the articles I can secure that they are not plagiarized, but are made based on press releases from brands, We work with a small team, with only one person responsible for writting the articles that's why we are trying to make our team grow in order to improve as well the quality of the articles.

Will be expecting your answer as well

I do have a passion for cars, here is a sample of my writing style.

"......The Porsche was lying across his bed with the blinds drawn wearing nothing but a towel, hands lazily laced behind his head as he watched the race on a small flickering television screen in the corner. His hood was the size of a South American country. A slanting tongue of lamplight lit up his rear end and I could see the outline of his large exhaust.

After agonizing for, oh, about two-fifths of a second, I straddled him on the bed, pinning his doors beside him with all my body weight. 'Remember what you said about chastity being curable if caught early enough?'

I kissed his hood ravenously, devouring his headlights, fender flares, seats. He broke free with the muscular ease of 600 wheel horsepower, unhooked my bra with composed expertise, found my nipple and flicked his tongue back and forth until it went hard. His car cover fell away. Porsche's erect member was so big I mistook it for some sort of monument in the centre of a town. I almost started directing traffic around it. He rolled me sideways on to my back and, in one flowing motion, my tracksuit and panties were down, lassoing one ankle. His tires edged up my street and then plunged me inside the tightest corners. My legs yielded to the weight of his carbon fiber body and I wrapped them around his hips, tugging him against me with a pang of hunger I hadn't felt for so long

I was pulling him into me with an animal force I didn't know I possessed. I'd been parched for so long, and he was the long, cool, sensual drink I'd craved. I twisted under him, caught in the heat and the slide and the thrill of it. There was nothing but obliterating sensation as we contorted like origami creations for the next hour, until a sweet and inward rapture spread through my thighs, leaving me tranquil, calm – serene at last......."

Thats just a small taste.
If you hire me, I will also have sex with an Aston Martin.

You have a serious future in romance novels. Sounds kinda like the one Peter Griffin wrote
