Article Writing/Marketing Tip - Take a Strong Position and Back It Up

Well, I guess I stirred things up a bit last week when I posted a few paragraphs on my belief that writer's block is only a myth and does not really exist.

The post ended up on the EzineArticles.com Blog and got quite a few comments both here and at EzineArticles.com. Not many folks were in the middle..........either strongly disagreeing or stronly agreeing with me.

The teaching point is this: every now and then in your articles, take a strong and perhaps controversial position and then back it up. You will get people involved, more people will read your articles, and you can get a little publicity as well.

In fact, I'm still getting comments both at this blog and at EzineArticles.com a week later.

Article Writer's Block - Why I Do Not Believe It Exists

A couple of weeks ago I took a rather radical position on one of my calls with Ellen Violette, The Ebook Coach, on one of our joint club calls www.ArticlestoEbooks.com

My position is that writer's block does not exist. I believe people get caught up in it because it sounds so cool, and makes you sound like a writer. "Oh, I have writer's block" etc.

Do you know anyone that runs? Have they ever had runner's block? They might not have felt like running, but they ran any way.

But if you insist on having writer's block, here are a couple of suggestions for getting past it:

1. Have more than one article in production at the same time. I usually have several in production at the same time, and if one is not flowing, I just move on to another until one is flowing.

2. Write about having writer's block.

Your comments and thoughts are invited.

Article Writing Tip - Break It Down to the Simplest Points

Article writing can be made easy when you break a subject down into it's simplest form.

A question to ask would be "What are the main three things to do" or "What are the three main points?"

For example, in the area of getting new clients from referral sources for a private practice, I break it down into these three points:

1. Getting your name in front of people.

2. Doing good work.

3. Keeping your name in front of people.

Then after writing that one article, you can take each point and write an article about that point too. So you get four articles for the idea of one.

Catch you soon!

A Huge Thank You to a Class Act

It's been over a week since the domain name fiasco with TheArticleGuy.com and it would take me a week to tell you about all the good things that have come out of this mess.

The following example is just one of the best.

One of my biggest concerns with losing the domain name was the hundreds of articles I have on EzineArticles.com about article writing and article marketing with links back to the domain name. I shuddered to think how long it would take me to go in and change the resource box on all those articles.

Before I could even ask him anything about it, Chris Knight, the CEO of EzineArticles.com, emailed me and said to just get him the new domain name and he would put his staff on changing my resource box on all those articles first thing in the morning.

That was such a welcome relief and I was very touched by his kindness, sooo

THANKS Chris!

And you can thank him too by getting a copy of what is a great resource anyway for article writing and article marketing,

Catch you on the next post!

Crisis Update

Well, it's been quite a few interesting days since the domain name crisis hit on Saturday.

In the post below you can see the results of the poll being taken, and it looks like www.TheInternetArticleGuy.com is winning.

It also looks like I might be able to get the old domain name back, for a price.

The very best thing to come out of all this is the outpouring of support from all my subscribers and members. You folks are awsome, and I'll be including some of your comments along with the things I have learned from this in future blog posts.

Now go write away, right away.
