I've been an Internet reviewer, too, and my reviews have even
been cited on authors' websites.
I'm a self-employed person, though,
and before long, I realized that each book review I wrote,
too often about a dreadful book that had a interesting
premise, was costing me a couple of hundred dollars in
unrealized income.
So now I limit myself to blogging: http://badattitudes.com/MT/archives/003355.html.
