Frequently when I am communicating with other webmasters and I bring up the subject of writing articles, I often get a response like "I'd rather have a root canal, I just can't write", or "my spelling is horrible and my grammar is not much better". In my view, the first excuse is just a matter of attitude. The latter excuse falls on deaf ears because the major word processing programs have good spelling and grammar checking capabilities.

The traditional brick and mortar marketplace has an established base of ap...
A Man Writing Love Stories In A Woman's Publishing World
My publishing journey has been unusual enough that friends and publicists alike have suggested I write about it, especially the part about being a man writing love stories in a woman's genre. But it's not just the genre. The whole publishing and agency world I encountered was dominated by women. Sound interesting enough? Okay. There's just one little hitch. Now that I'm sitting in front of the keyboard, I find that there's not much to tell that's dramatic. Most of the women e...
A Powerful Yet Simple Strategy To Increase The Sales Of Your Book Ten-fold!
As a successful author interested in building a business off your book, you must understand the difference between features and benefits. Features are tangible and benefits are intangible.
Features describe what a product is or has based on physical/tangible characteristics. On the other hand, benefits are feeling oriented.
Remember that the reason that people come to the Internet is because they have wants and desires and want to be satisfied. This is the *sole* reas...
Article Writing and Clients: When Things Do Not Work Out
Not all relationships work out and business relationships are no exception. Why hang on to something that doesn't jive? Put the relationship to the side and move on.
A Few Dilemmas Of The Writing Journey
Authoring as a Risk-Taking Endeavor
Being an unpublished novelist poses all sorts of dilemmas. Writing is entrepreneurial in nature, more than most people realize, and it is fraught with make or break decisions. Which side of the political spectrum do you show yourself? Do you embellish this or that social issue, perhaps the one most fashionable, or do you hide from them all?
If your goal is publication for its own sake, and you've decided to write, say, Gothic romance ...

Dealing With The Doubt Demon
The only good teachers for you are those friends who love you, who think you are interesting, or very important, or wonderfully funny. ~Brenda Ueland
The doubt demon loves artists. This sensitive bunch of individuals falls prey to it so easily, from cartoonist Charles Schulz to writer Virginia Woolf.
