This is an email that I intend to send to a list of

both using are free time to search for more possible
employers out there to contact and if we don¡¦t get
response from this batch than I will continue to
contact people.

I realize you are not going to be happy about this and
just wanted to give you one final chance to make me a
more reasonable offer than the $2000 a month you have
offered me to be exclusive to LightSpeed Media. You
called me in for that second meeting so that we could
talk about what I was looking for, and then all you
did was continue to tell me $2000 is all you can
afford to pay me. If that is the case than I will
accept that. I appreciate all that you have paid me,
but feel that I was mislead about a severance package
I am now not getting. I did not plan to be cut off
with no notice and I need to finish school. I would
also like to walk away from this whole journey with
something other than just enough to pay my mortgage
for the next year. My images have been online and
making you money for 3+ years, and will continue to
make you money for years to come. This is why I
can¡¦t in good conscience accept such a low figure.

If you are interested in offering me more than the
$2000 a month than please contact me. If you are not
interested in paying me more than please do not
contact me.

I do hope to hear from you soon. But if I don¡¦t then
I will start contacting web companies by tomorrow
night.

Sincerely,

Tammy

haha, gotta love it when they become prima donnas.

sorry to be cynical, but here's how it goes.

an otherwise forgettable (but cute) young girl with nice skin and a smile who is slightly above average is well photographed and extremely well marketed.

and all of a sudden she has the illusion that she is a star.

youthful female beauty has a very short shelf life. sorry to burst the bubble, but the 18 year old prima donna begins to age very fast in front of the camera---and a girl 23 looks much different than the 18 year old when any NEW content is done---and that new content is usually worth LESS in the marketplace. Lightspeed did not make the world the way it is---the surfers make the world the way it is.

to get greedy at this stage of the game might end up costing her.
