    $2.50, rewrite an entertainment/celebrity article
    honestly, the main difficulty is finding entertainment articles that long to rewrite. most are filled with images and videos and don't have much text. it would help if i 'watched television' or 'went to the movies' or knew 'what the kids are listening to these days', but broader news sources like cnn and more traditional ones like the ny times have longer articles you can search through.

    EDIT: i also asked the requester if it's ok to include quotes from celebs and other personalities who are quoted in the original article that's being rewritten, he said it's fine if it's limited to two or three lines, but will be rejected if your version is stuffed full of quotes as filler.

    EDIT PT. 2: stories must be positive, which also makes it harder...

    Grabbed one. So he doesn't give you a subject, just pick your own? I see all the guidelines: positive, US-based, in the last three days...

    yeah, i found the cameron diaz piece on us magazine's site, it didn't actually include dates of any kind in the article about when she said anything, but the article was dated yesterday so i figured it would be fine. i got the biden article i'm doing now from cnn, might supplement it with other articles around the web. but i find that he's a pretty reasonable requester, he's approved everything i've done for him and been pretty responsive with questions, gets back to you fairly quickly and i think he tends to be available late, around and after 11pm est...
