I have no choice to write what I like,I'm a web content writter,my "boss" gives the topic that we will write. The worst part is that not all your submitted article will be accepted theres our friendly editors that checks our articles.If you get lucky it will be approved and if not you need to rewrite the article. Pressure is still there even if it is a home based job.

I write because I cannot help it. I just have to. I write novels, but I am not that good at writing articles, which is what sites such as Helium, Associated Content, and the Hub want. I am still working on my novel, but in order for it to be published, I need an agent, and my novel is not good enough for one yet. I love to write Christian fantasy, that includes mystery and suspense.

I think that's probably one of the reasons why most of us end up writing, we can't help it. I started writing because it was what I was doing at school and I couldn't think of anything else to do and so I started bashing out articles for a newspaper until I managed to get myself published and as they say the rest is history.
Used to be quite active in writing for newspapers. Since then I've been concentrating mainly on commercial writing (press releases, marketing brochures etc) and am trying to build an online presence hence bloggins and rantings on mylot. Essentially, writing is pretty much the same, whatever you write - getting out your opinions and thoughts in the way that you want.

I have always lived in a fantasy world, have a wonderful imagination. I love to tell stories. That is how it started. I like to write poetry as well but am more into writing novels and, more recently, short stories. It has been my life-long dream to be a published author. I hope that will happen soon.

I write to write. I love writing, and I like that I can speak my mind and be serious or silly or informative. I've had a few things published, both freelance and contracted. My favorite thing to write about though (to answer the question lol) is life - my kids, my experiences, especially if I can put a funny spin on it. Writing things that make people laugh is the best of both worlds.

I write about different subjects depending on what topics come to my mind. Writing itself is very wide range so i suggest that you should know and have a rough idea what you want to write before starting to pen it on paper, computers etc.

yes, and as a writer you will be able to share a lot other than what you researched if you had experience about your topic. thanks for posting.
