<human>: Hey guys,

I recently got picked up for a non-paid internship with a soon-to-launch magazine (out of Vancouver) called HUSH Magazine ( in the capacity of a PR/marketing position. I would be competing with about 15 other interns for a single or few positions in a 3 month long internship, and it would be a lot of work. I have little problem with this, and think it would be a lot of fun and a great opportunity, but for the fact that I'm leaving my current job, and can't afford to dedicate so much time and effort to a non-paid position.

**My question:**
The owner saw my blog ( and likes my writing. He wants to use some of the articles for the business/tech section of the website (as it is nearly empty). He just called asking if they can 'borrow' some of the articles, and I explained the above predicament- that I like the magazine and where it's going, but cannot afford to do an internship for free at this point in my life.
There was a group 'brainstorming' session yesterday, and they really liked my ideas and leadership, and thus I said that I'd like to be offered a position- either staffed or freelance (my mistake, should have just said staffed)- with the magazine immediately, as they had already seen the wealth I could contribute.
He seemed open to this idea, and asked how much an article would cost. 
Now, me having never done any paid writing before, I really had no idea what sort of number to give him, so I said I'd have to figure out the numbers, and would talk to him at a team mixer tonight.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
