The process used in the previous article (Private Label Rights - Getting Organized) can seem mechanical at times. That's often the result when you're 'filling in blanks' on a form. But it's wise to remember the outline can't write for you. The creativity, thought and research invested in your writing is what makes your submission live.



Even if I'm using PLR content, there's still one nagging concern. Keeping articles fresh requires ideas. Going 'abracadabra' might actually work a time or two; show me how, please? Much as I disliked the idea of journal writing in my education years, a journal turned out to be exactly what I need.

A convenient, carry-around size avoids losing ideas. Thoughts and inspiration can tip-toe so softly through your head barely leave a lasting impression. Only your journal can keep them available to you. I find when I'm having trouble drifting off to sleep, my busy mind will pop up all sorts of ideas. Writing them down gives me both ideas and quiets brain down.

Sparks and inspiration can go only so far in keeping you well-stocked for content ideas. Other sources exist around you as long as you keep your mind open and your journal handy. A current headline can be a marvelous way to tie in content you've had waiting in draft form. A bit of conversation overheard in passing can give you an answer to what people want to know. People's hobbies are wonderful places to explore interests and creativity.

I, as a newbie, don't even attempt to present this series as a set of instructions. Any pretense that I had everything worked out would be stupid and self-defeating. I've just compiled steps and tools I am finding useful to share with you; especially if you're new to this business, like me. There are many ways to accomplish article writing. This has just been one of them.

Thank you for your attention. I hope you will check out my other articles.
