Interview with Bella_Stella
what you all have been waiting for
Larry King interviews Bella_StellaLK: Hello Bella_Stella! Welcome to my show.
SB: Hello Larry. It's a pleasure being here. Thank you for your invitation to this interview.
LK: Bella_Stella, would you please tell us your real name?
BS: Larry, I'd love too, but my fans have fallen in love with me, and this includes my Squidoo nickname "Bella_Stella"
LK: Talking about fans, now at your lensmasters page, as I can see, you have 26 fans. Do you expect this number to rise after creating this lensography lens?
BS: Of course! They will find an extra reason to adore me. And its really easy to become a fan of me, you just have to click here!
As for these 26 fans that I got at the moment, I know that they are really special. Tigerseye-Wealth-Systems, Isabella, RyanRE, Music-Resource, Greekgeek, gigifitrakis, LeslieBrenner, BradCallen, Margaret_Schaut, alwintraffics, FoxMusic, JaguarJulie, StacymomBiz, Romaxx, BizGuides, Matthew_Ferry, alteredkat, Mayflowerblood, flowski, anthropos, Smartshops, The_Bard, flowski, KimGiancaterino, and no-na-me, I can never forget them, coz they have supported me to go on, and create more and more lenses.
LK: But these are 25 lensmasters, while on your page it says you got 26 fans. Did you maybe miss someone?
BS: No! The 26th fan of me...is me. I'm kind of self-centered and weird I know. But my 25 other fans don't mind!
LK: Hmm. Anyway...Tell us Bella_Stella, which is your favorite lens?
BS: Well, I could never answer this question. My lenses are like my children, I love them all equally. But I can tell you that some of them are really weak! None one has visited them for weeks. Seems that no one, not even my fans, like Oia Greece or Mykonos Greece. These poor lenses have just zero visitors!
LK: Why is that? Why don't you take care of them
BS: I try. I have updated them recently, but still they aren't attractive enough.
LK: Do you offer some of your $$$ to a charity?
BS: No. I just want cash. But my lenses don't offer me much. Moreover I haven't really received my recent payments, as I live in Europe and according to the new policy of paypal for Europeans, my money can be kept for couple of months.
LK: Well, here seems there is a little complain. Moving on to more interesting staff. I would like to know, why did you become a lensmonster...I mean lensmaster?
BS: Well, a friend of mine told me about Squidoo, and since I had some time to kill, I got involved. It didn't take long before I started loving it.
LK: Are you from Greece? All your lenses are about it
BS: Yes I am Greek and I am also a passionate traveler. In case you haven't noticed all my lenses are in the Travel section. They are about Greek islands, Cruises, must-stay at hotels, small travel guides and even some including historical facts.
LK: But you tend to keep them small. I mean, I can't see any lens of your really big.
BS: First of all, I am still working on may of them. Secondly, I don't think is the quantity but the quality that counts, therefore I try to keep them short, informative and focused on the topic.
Why did you built a lensography lens?
BS: Everyone else seems to have one - and as I told you, I need some advertising. I need people to get to know my work, and a lensography is a nice way to achieve that.
(LK whispering)
Well you don't seem to be such a good lensmaster ...what do you expect? Build another lens and change everything...?
BS: Hey there! I heard that! And let me tell you something, old man. I may not be that experienced, but I am willing to work on my lenses, and create also new ones. And then I get more visitors, more comments, more friends and fans. I will be a more active member of Squidoo and I'll nominate my lenses for LOTD. But even if I don't make it, I'll still got my 41 lenses and my 26 fans and you got nothing...simply because you never tasted what making a Squidoo lens is.
I am leaving this interview. I have some lenses to make!
LK: That's all my friends. Seem I should check out this Squidoo thing soon, coz it seems that it is more famous than I am...
