Added to the fact that most of us don't have any writing qualifications, I don't think the standard of writing we do it good enough to be put in any actual newspaper that pays writers.
Hey, maybe I'm wrong and there actually are places in whcih I could get paid to write with the same qualification I have right now (next to none, besides that I wrote for the tb blog) and with the same standard of writing that I have right now. If that's the case I would actually love to know where I could get paid to do so.
you seem to forget about design, makeups and so on.
in any case just google any local newspaper/magazines enterprises next to you and ask to be trainee. just prove yourself usefull and thats it.

i was naive and thought i'm doing a good thing, untill i finally realised that turning a game that meant to be my entertainment during free time, into a routine job with no payment is quite probably not the best idea.
