Help Me Land a Blogging Job
57
There's a new contest in town, and I'm reaching out to all my fans, readers and friends here on HubPages for help!
Nature Made has launched a talent search recently, in search of a Good Mood blogger. (Now why are you laughing? Are you sayin I'm not always in a good mood? What do you mean I'm sarcastic? Hush now. This is serious business).
They are looking for someone with a passion for sharing mood boosting tips and advice, a good attitude and a little inspiration. It's a six month gig, paying $5,000 a month. Yes, seriously!
Hey, now.That's right up my alley. If you have read some of my work here at HubPages, such as Mommy Meltdown, Bounce, A Skype Dream or 5 Ways to Apologize, then you know I have a way of taking things that would bring me (or you) down and seeing the bright side, the light side, the sunny side up side.
So what do I need? I need your vote. The applicants with the most votes will make it to the next level, but I can't do it on my own! I need to show that I am loved. How about showing me a little love?
Pick Me! Pick Me!
So please take a minute to go vote for me at Sam-E and help me get to the next round of this contest! It only takes a minute! The first phase of the contest is based completely on votes, but for the applicants who make it to the next level (only the top 20) they will have to create a video and submit a writing sample. Friends will be able to vote, but a panel of judges will have the final say over the outcome.
Your help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
And, if for some reason you decide to get in there and enter yourself because you are a shiny happy person (in need of $5,000 a month), then I wish you much luck! Really, I do! ;)

Thank you, thank you, thank you Shirley! That is such a great help! I really appreciate it. :)
I've voted for you I hope you win
You are very welcome! I hope it does help.
Oh! I just remembered that I also have a StumbleUpon account. I'm on it, sending this now!
Reviewed and stumbled to everyone on my list. Good luck!
OMG - I am finally back online and will of course support you in this contest! Good luck!

Voted and good luck.
Wow! I went to put my kids to bed and returned to all of these wonderful comments! Thank you all so much for voting. I'm overwhelmed by your support!
Shirley - thank you so much for submitting to StumbleUpon! I sent it to my friends there as well (and sent you a friend request). Great idea! :)
Steph and Robie, thank you for the votes and tweets and Sir Dent, thanks for the Facebook post.
I will certainly keep you updated on my progress there. Thank you all again for the help - I knew I could count on my hubber friends! :)
LOL, I went to try and vote again but the site wouldn't let me :P You should also understand that many will vote for themselves using their friends computers or wifi hotspots. Some will even go to libraries to do this. All they need is a different IP address.
done, all the best
With a face like that, how could I not vote for you!? You got it in the bag.
I will vote. Wish you well in advance.
It was my greatest pleasure to vote for Amy!
Just voted for you & I'll tweet it for you too. Good luck!
@Joelrunner
vote for you ..sarcasm and humor is good.
Thank you all for your votes and tweets! I'm getting there slowly but surely. :)
Sir Dent, you are right. I'm sure there are many people who will try to do that. I'm just hoping my network of friends online will outlast them. I can hope anyway. :)
Joel, I just followed you on twitter - glad to connect there! I'm @amyjanie on twitter, if anyone else would like to connect with me there as well!
Good luck Amy! Voted!

Thanks Shirley ;)
Thank you Cathy and Funride! I'm just a few votes away from making the top 20!
You're very welcome, Funride. :)
Amy Jane, I just started a forum thread about this. Last time I checked, you had 45 votes. There are thousands of hubbers, I think we can do better than that.

Shirley, you are amazing! Thank you!
And thank you too Jimmy! I can't believe I'm at 62 already - last I checked I was still in the 40's. :)
You got my vote! It's good to hear about another Connecticut resident! Good luck!
You have gone my vote too. Good luck girl!
You're up to 70 now and the night's still young! Woot!
Oh, and I posted it on my Facebook and I'll twitter it too :)
I'm retweeting a request for votes for you regularly on twitter-- maybe some other hubbers on twitter could do the same.BTW I am pinkpackrat on twitter for anyone who wants to follow me there-- go Amy:-)
This is very exciting! So many hubbers banding together for one of our own. :)
Gonna go over and vote right now, and best of luck to you. You sound like a winner to me!
Just put my vote in for you. Good luck!
You deserve this girl! Team Hubpages is behind you 100% !!!

Good luck! :)
A man never reaches that dizzy height of wisdom when he can no longer be led by the nose by a purty young thing. So lead me away. I'll vote. Ok, number 141 I am.
You got mine :) Good luck Amy!

Hi Amy :)
I have looked through some of your hubs and yes I also voted for you! Good Luck!!! I hope you get it. I am a fan :)
Amy Jane, I know it's a bit late, but i would have voted for you had I known about this contest (and been on hubpages at the time). You have a great writing voice, and I wish I could've helped. Looking forward to reading more hubs!
Aw, thanks Habby. :) It didn't work out this time, but I did find a great writing new job just recently that I think will be even better long term. It isn't as glamorous, but will be fun (and profitable) anyway. Thanks again for your kind words and I'm so glad you are enjoying my hubs!
You have to tell us about your exciting new job.You have to keep spreading the Good News to us.Great job I loved the effort you put in.
Scott.Life 2 years ago
