I am writing so i can express myself and not to impress others but it is more beautiful if you write then your given a small earnings. Small earnings boost our self esteem . Admit it or not , it does ! Yes , our earnings can't buy luxury things but you feel inspired and happy if we see our earnings. How about you Lotters ? For what reason or reasons that you are writing ? Share it.

I like to write about our family, just as much as talking. It is just part of me. You are right though money does make it a bit more exciting to write.

Writing gives little in monetary returns but it gives things which that money can't buy like name , popularity , friendship and fulfillent.

When I learned how to work on computer,I wanted to earn a lot of money online.Now from my experiences I know earning too much and becoming a multimillionaire overnight is almost impossible through online earnings.Besides Mylot I have joined some article writing sites also.I have a flair for writing.I have read hundreds of great books in my mother tongue Hindi and also in English.All of these books are written by great writers.The one thing that is common in all of them is that they are written in a very simple and easy-to-understand language.Obviously great writers write simple language.I too try to express myself in as simple language as I can.But I have noticed one thing.It is that writing simple language is difficult whereas writing difficult language is easy.If you want others to understand what you have written,you have to write everything in easy language.

Of course,writing does not make us rich,but it enriches our life.Hindi is my mother tongue.English is a foreign language we were taught in school.Most of my articles are in Hindi.Now I have decided to write in English as well.Expressing ourselves is a pleasure that can't be described.It can be felt only.

Writing does not makes us rich overnight , we need to burn thousands of candles. So many great writers we have and they express it to the simplest form.
Just keep on writing , one day you will wake ,you're already expert in Hindu

Hello angelpink you are right! I arrived here at mylot by a guru of earnings online, 4 years ago, more or less. But as I couldn´t make the big earnings I wanted I was dissappointed. And also I felt ashamed too, to interact in an international community because english is not my home language.
I set an eshop, and I was receiving my personal mylot on my mail but I just send it to the trash mail. Til I began reading to it. And I felt courageous to write in english and interact with a foreing community. Then I began to felt accepted by mylot community, and this made me feel sooooo happy!!! 
So I have a cent for my thoughts, but I gained a lovely community of lot of kind friends that I value in much more!
I work online daily because I have an eshop, and I feel lonely no more with mylot, specially now that kids are no more babies, and in the morning when they are on school.

That's the beauty in Mylot for we can interact to people globally thus we we'll be able to learn different cultures isn't this enough reason for us to belong in this site ?

Hi Angelpink, that depends on how much you need the money.
Those newspaper reporters definitely have to write for money first of all, since that is their job.
When they are blogging in the official platform or their own personal blog, they are free to express their feelings and thoughts.
For those of us who do not need the money from articles for survival, we can choose to enjoy the writing, instead of taking it as a job.

Yes it is very true , it depends in our needs . Some write to earn fast and lucrative while others for fun , and for friendship.

joining mylot 3 years ago is part of my search to earn online. however after failing to find means that could bring in decent online earnings i stopped doing online activities and only peep in once in a while. recently however i discovered that i enjoy writing hence, here i am again. And this is not to impress others but more to express my thoughts and ideas, practice my writing skills, enjoy seeing my works published online and yes maybe earning later from these activities.
