Writing Articles are Fun, but....................

I confess I need to be writing, but I'm not other than my sarcastic responses. The story is in my head and a bit on paper but after finishing one novel my mind isn't with it right now and haven't done much beyond poetry. I hate poetry, but it seems to be one of my talents. Go figure! I don't mind article writing but I find it harder if it is about something that doesn't interest me.

Article writing is indeed something that requires time and effort. That is, if you want to produce something of good quality. Since I have always enjoyed writing as my past time, I don't mind the kind of attention and detail it requires. In fact, I find it challenging. I think mylotting is fun too but i get a different sense of fulfillment when writing.

Mylotting is a more relaxed setting with less thought to do. However, you can not earn at Mylot the same as you can with Article Writing. Article Writing takes more time, research and focus, and therefore it pays much better. Although most times I'd rather be chilling shooting the breeze here at Mylot, I spend more time writing articles because I know (and have seen) that it is more financially rewarding. So far one f my favorite sites to write on is HubPages. I've earned a lot of money from there and feature them in my profile.

This is a very good discussion about this. I have been slacking off on writing articles since I wanted to make some money online doing other things where it won't be able article writing. Writing on here is fun because you get to write about different things if you started the discussions and stuff. I do need to write more for AC which you know.

I like doing both, but for me they completely separate. MyLot is for fun, my other writing is my job. I do MyLot to keep myself in the thick of things and to explore other people's viewpoints. Article and story writing is my passion and that's what I really throw myself into. In the beginning, I got sucked into the MyLot experience and to cut back a bit to prevent myself from becoming sidetracked. MyLot is great venue and it's wonderful to get out there and see what other people are saying and thinking. I love it. But, my real work is the hard, non-social stuff.

In all honesty,I don't really make an attempt,when it comes to writing articles.I write coz I love to. Its a creative part of me that I need to vent out and I piece it together as an article. But when it comes to myLotting, we are here discussing a specific topic. So for me its as simple as this.myLotting is about sharing my knowledge/opinion about a particular topic.I can do this at any time. Writing articles for me is something I can indulge and engage in, only when I am in the mood.Only then do the thoughts and the words flow.

I can post on here a whole lot faster in most cases. However I look at it as they are tiny posts. I post in my myspace blog all of the time. I do however plan on paying a bit more attention to posting some articles so I can start to make some more money. So to date I have not divided my time. I just come here to mylot and post to the topics that seem interesting or until I get tired. Then I might browse other areas to write on and if something jumps out at me I will go into it.

I really like mylot because like you said it doesn't have to be grammatically correct. Its almost like a mindless activity. You can mylot and listen to an audiobook at the same time. Who do you write articles for? I think it might be fun to have a writing challenge again. I haven't had anything to stretch my brain in awhile. Once in awhile I've found article writing in the tasks here. They were fun.

I feel the same way, mylot is still very fun, compared to article writing. Recently I have been spending more time writing articles than in mylot. I need to write 119 articles this month for Helium, in order to get the 4th writing star. I force myself to write five articles a day. It's really very tough! I don't have problem finding ideas for writing, I do have problem keeping up with the momentum. Mylot is more like a social site, the discussion here is similar to chatting with friends. Article writing is more like sitting for examination. There is one very important difference. Article writing makes more money. If I can reach the goal of writing 119 articles for Helium this month, I will get at least 238 dollars. There is no way anyone in mylot can make two hundred dollars a month.

I enjoy blogging when I tend to replace my template and add more functions into it. Writing is also a big pat of blogging but I really needed time since I can't write something interesting when my mind is divided into some sites. But I see to it that there will be a time to go here in Mylot and participate in the discussion. The way I spend here is different from the way I do and write blogs on my site. It is both fun and challenging for me because I need to keep things updated and in here I need to check what are the topics most members talk about. I learn a lot here in Mylot, while when I am blogging, I share the knowledge I know of.

Writing Articles for fun......... Hello there, glad that you asked. You are right, mylotting is a lot of fun because the answers can be given very quickly and as long as we are writing four lines or a few more we will get paid at least a few cents. Now as far as writing articles go, well let's just say that is a horse of a different color. I've been known to write a few blogs up here and there but I've never actually gone so far as to write a real article. I may decide to get more into as time goes by but like you I"m not too keen on grammar and whatnot, so for the time being I'm just going to stick it out here with mylot. So just out of curiosity what kind of articles are you writing? Also are you writing them for a certain company or a different website or what? thanks for responding and please don't forget to add me as a friend! Wishing you a great weekend, Happy mylot!

I don't really have a plot in writing (although I am not that much of a writer too). I just write according to my thoughts, and edit it, only if I feel that there's a need to. I enjoy both answering discussions and starting one here in mylot. But like I have mentioned a lot of times in previous discussions, I only write when it is in my interest. No matter how much the discussion gained responses, if it is still not under my interest, I won't respond to it. This way, I am confident that the responses I give are something that I can add input into, and therefore, are quality answers.

I wish that I could say there is a "method to my madness". I guess it is the influence of my ADHD but I do not plan my day that closely. I start off the week making goals for the week. Throughout the week, I work on which ever project (writing, mylotting, home, personal) strikes my fancy at the moment. I rarely finish an article in one sitting. I usually have 20 to 30 half written articles at any one time. I know this sounds like a crazy system but it works for me.

it just takes practice i guess. practice being articulate. soon enough, you will find yourself writing your thoughts smoothly with hardly any grammatical errors. i keep a blog as a venue for me to polish writing and improve my skills in the craft. i always appreciate it when i receive good comments from my entries.

I am a horrible writer but, would love to blog. I also have no idea how to put it together properly. They would think a pre-school child had written it ,with my grammar and punctuation mistakes.I envy those of you who can put it all together so gracefully. My lot makes it pressure free ,everyone understands my few butchered sentences.

Hey, Most of the time I actually like to write, but for some reason I just hate article writing. I think that because on MyLot, you can talk about anything you want, but the articles are just too...formal or rather. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!
