Best cup of coffee ever?

I walked into Global Village Organic Coffee on Hillsborough Street in Raleigh this morning and decided on a whim to try their new single cup, brewed just for you, organic coffee. The owner (who is awesome!) walked me over to a special counter and guided me through a 4 minute presentation and hands-on brewing process [...]

June stock photography numbers

Hey everyone, here are my June stock photography numbers! Not the incredible month I had last month, but I’ll take it! Free money at this point!
istockphoto.com: $35.17
shutterstock.com: $11.94
dreamstime.com: $9.61
total: $56.72
I’d have the fancy graphs up, but Shutterstock forced lookstat to stop showing their stats!

May Stock Numbers

Wow! I posted my best month ever on istock last month with $75 in earnings! The EL fairy nabbed me $19.20 for a shot I took in Myrtle Beach out of the hotel room overlooking the beachfront. Nice! I hope Shutterstock wizens up and lets lookstat in again!
