Sounds very good! I write a lot and like it. One of the challenges I have met is, how my sub-conscious works best and I have found out that the physical exercise is one of the best ways to improve the content, bot the ideas and the writing quality.

After a good running outside, only one hour is enough, the brains work in a relaxed way and it is a real joy to write during the next two hours or so.

And it is true, that writing articles is mostly techniques. The more you do it, the better you will became.

I can’t say that I have ever hit the 30 article in one day mark, but thanks for the challenge.

One technique I use is to make a master list of fifty or so key points and then pick and choose the points as I write articles. Most of my articles have 3 points.

I find if I write more that five or six articles on the same niche topic in one sitting I get stale and my brain loses creativity. Doing it this way offers a way to break it up and allow for different brain thoughts to evolve.
also using the article templates EzineArticles offers will give a variety different twists to use in the introductions and you could write one for each of the template suggestions.

Thank you Chris, excellent article.
I will definitely give it a try. Anything is better than writing ideas on slips of paper, or even in my day book. Staying organized, and on track is a daily problem I have to overcome, and I like the idea of building an article inventory.
All the Best.

I find having a framework / outline works well for me. These 7 points provide an alternative frame work that I can try.

Particularly like it where we state the problem and then end with the hook/solutions.

Although I have not tried writing 20-40 articles a day, I am thinking I will try using your ideas here when I next feel “stuck”. Thanks for the input!

Great Article, Again! Sounds Like a great framework for me to use as I occasionally get “writers block” and could easily move on to another article or topic. Thanks for the great info., and I will be implementing these ideas directly.

I am just getting started with article writing too. Spell check would have caught the “writting” but not the choice of definitely rather than defiantly. This website has alot of resources for those of us who are just starting out. Enjoy the journey! Jeanne

Thanks for the tips. Creating word document files with titles only is a great idea and will work for any one. Thing is finding time to sit before the system and start typing is the main problem….so many distractions and duties you can not evade from. For example going to the dining table (thinking and writing sucks your glucose in the body like anything) and taking your food leisurely with due attention. Once sat before the computer you need not worry about flying fast on your topic. Certainly some mental diversion like an evening stroll helps a lot.

Proofread your articles. The key to quality is good proof reading and you cannot rely on spell-check alone. If possible, have someone else proofread it, marking mistakes.so that is why my article are never publish never even bother to double check it thanks for the tip

Someone suggested to proof read your articles by starting at the end of the article and working your way to the beginning.

I found that it does help considerably. I found mistakes that my eyes or brain just wouldn’t have seen otherwise.

Thanks.

great tips. But it’ll be better if you just speak your ideas into your mobile phone. You can do it during your retime. Then come back and just start exploding. The key is to be action minded and stop being addicted to computer games.

These are great ideas for beginners like myself. 20 – 40 articles a day!! hope that isn’t required to get noticed.

We can all make mistakes when creating articles, and it seems that something termed a `general problem` was found in my latest submission. What I don`t understand is why you email me to inform me of a problem, then tell me I can contact you to find out more (in fact what the actual problem is). Why don`t you tell me in your first email, otherwise it justs wastes time and is very frustrating.

Just say we found such and such and when corrected please resubmit your article. Instead there`s this wasting of both our time.

Geoff,

A general problem status allows our Member Support team to detail the issue with you for clarity.

General problems falls into the grayer issues and are areas that we need to explain in detail. Our front line editors don’t have the capability to send details like this in email which is why the general problem exists.

We want you to understand the area of concern so you can avoid those traps with future submissions.

Thanks, Chris. I appreciate the advice about starting with titles and 4 key points of each. I also appreciate the advice to get out of the house after writing a lot. I just finished writing copy for 2 sales letter pages, and my body is screaming to get some fresh air and exercise!
