When Gary gets excited about a topic, he can be a little hard to understand. So here’s a short outline of what he had to say:
- Write in Article Sets – They get you into “The Zone” and really focus your energy on writing.
- Answering customers’ frequently asked questions (FAQ). Every question you receive is at least one article. Write articles to answer those questions.
- Write by topic or sub-topic. Turn each item into a stand alone article and go into greater detail about each one.
- Cut Up Longer Articles – Cut up longer articles into two, three or more stand-alone articles. Do this when you get rolling and type a really long article.
- Article Title Writing Sessions – Spend 10–30 minutes writing article titles – try to generate at least 50 article titles. Then, when you sit down at your next writing session, you can immediately start producing high-quality articles. And remember to make use of our Article Title Writing Service.
- Repurpose Existing Content – This is content that you’ve already written, but haven’t yet submitted as an article to EzineArticles. Content like:

Trisha,
Having worked with Gary for over a year now, I can guarantee that he does indeed wear pants. As a matter of fact, he is fully clothed throughout all videos.
It’s a little-known fact in human circles that the current fashion for stick figure men is very tight, form-fitting black clothing. Things were very different back in the 80’s when all the sticks were wearing tie-dyed parachute pants.
