My Life as a Writer at Mylot.com

I never imagined in my life that I will have a writing career. I never had any so much experience in the writing field. I have done this when I was in High School but I was not really serious about it since I have other organizations to attend to. I was really busy in High School. I was like an officer to all major organizations. I never realized that years from history will repeat itself wherein I'll be able to write. I also never expected that I will have good reviews with the way I write. I had one negative review but it is not really about the way I write, it is about my topic. Anyhow, it's nice to kill time with just writing wherein your brain is really working and you can go places. Writing is a nice vice so encouraging everyone to do this is nice. I thank all the people of Mylot.com for creating such a job like this. It's not boring and it's very informational since you learn something from the writings of others. I hope that someday someone will hit "mark best response".
So there!

If you're interested in a writing career, there are MUCH better-paid options than myLot - though most of them are far less fun!

@fsuma86: You'll have to excuse me for pasting links to myLot discussions where this has been discussed at great length, but it's easier than typing a huge great big load of info again!
Someone asked about earning $100 a month on this discussion: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2554592.aspx - my response covered some of the basic choices you'll need to address before starting as a freelancer.
I posted a list of questions for people starting their own writing business when someone talked about setting up a writing team here: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2533624.aspx
Ways to earn from writing was discussed here (my response is the first one and covers the basic list of places to earn): http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2546370.aspx?p=1#1_15026433
And there's more discussion here: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2551937.aspx
DON'T just read my responses: there's some absolutely awesome information from a LOT of other people on all those threads, including links to even more info! Freelance writing is a massive subject: that's why I blog about it and have a book coming out very soon covering all this stuff!!
If you have questions, just ask. I don't consider myself an "expert" (yet) but I've been doing this for almost 3 years, so I know my way around the business now.

Hey there! I would like to congratulate you in your writing career. I've been dreaming to be a writer. I wanted to be a writer because,I wanted to share some information to other. I wanted to inspire others thru my writings. I do believe that anyone is a writer its just that some took it for granted, and some had already realized that thru writing anyone can write. and to be a Writer also needs some Determination.

It's nice to hear about your experience. If I am going to compare you and me, we are totally different. I don't have any experience in writing. Every time I have to write something at school or here in the internet, I really want to review it many times as I can. I think I've wrote it wrong. I'm not sure that my discussion has a correct grammar or spelling. Upon joining here in mylot. I hope to improve my ability on how to write a correct discussion in a nice manner. Have a nice day. Enjoy mylotting.

I have loved writing since I was a child, that and singing. If it's in your blood, then you just write. My house is filled with a lot of writing supplies, and I am always writing in some form or another because that's what I do, I write.

I have always wanted to be a writer too here on mylot but am not sure really what to write about. I am sure I can figure out what to write about or topics that interest me so I am just going to have to try this more and I am sure I can do it. I try and post at least 4 lines when I respond to a discussion. That seems to work well for me. I also try and do a picture when I can.

I think there are other websites that pay you better than Mylot. You would have to write online articles or blogs for them. It really is kind of time consuming to be able to think of stuff to write. But the rewards for doing it, certainly make it worth the time I spend doing it. I hope you are able to make a lot of money to be able to spend on different things.

You have just written a personalized review of why someone should come to mylot. If we can learn from each other why not. I am certain without a doubt that you have many good things to share and look forward to your contributions. Yes, we get rewards in many areas. We shouldn't worry about a few negatives maybe for it is like a lemon - impossible to eat until you mix with lots of water and sugar. Hope you enjoy you time and are able to deal with any challenges you face and know that you have friends here. :-)
