Written as Dr. Maryellen Smith:
As I have explained elsewhere, I have used the pseudonym Dr. Maryellen Smith in my writing. The original web site was called Associated Content. It is now Yahoo! Shine or Yahoo! Voices. Here is a list of the articles that I have written for them with links. I will try to group them for you by subject. If you prefer some other grouping, feel free to put it in the comments. I will continue to update this list as I am continuing to write for them.
If you want to see the entire list, you can go to the INDEX, or go to http://contributor.yahoo.com/signup , put in Dr. Maryellen Smith in the search, click on my name under the really old and ugly picture. It will take you to the Voices list. If you want the list of Shine articles, click on the box with Yahoo! Voices, and a drop down box will give you the Yahoo! Shine site. Click on that.
I appologize for the spacing. I have tried to fix it on many occasions. Techno- dinosaur strikes again.
