Lizard-ology..

Loot = any extra money earned.

I had a real loot once! :dance:

An article on artificial eyelashes titled "If only..."

with less than 100 words (the shortest I ever wrote???)

fetched me Rs. 500 from The Hindu.

I had earned more than 5 Rs for every word I had written,

including the words "a", "an" and "the".

That kind of money is the real loot! :)
 
Y do u call it the loot..? Can u fix a price for ur child..? To me, what I write are my thought childs.

Yes, I do earn some money by writing. But I don't write for money.

BTW, did u enjoy lizard-ology..?

Whenever I ask about the writing of the others here,

they neither reveal about it nor cross my path again!

So no questions about what you wrote, where and when. :)

I confess that I have this bad habit.

I do not read anything TOO long!!!

(except Ramayana and Bhaagavatham)

I like best the short and to the point posts.

I agree that tastes and opinions differ.

People (like our narrator friend) can make a mountain of a mole hill.

I would rather do it the other way - and try to underplay it.
