makes my brain turn into mush. But writing the same content is required in my field of work and as much as I don't want to complain, it happens on a regular basis. I tried rewriting things without sacrificing quality but it makes my inspiration die and wither. Sometimes, I wish plagiarism wasn't a sin so I can just copy and paste. To hell with editors, teachers and critics. My brain probably won't function and acknowledge the flames anyway. So, does your brain feels mush when you write the same thing again and again and, did I mention again?

i hate to admit it but this does really happen to me. i know article spinners would help you out much in this process, but the output almost always looks like not created by human, or is not as readable as when a person writes. sometimes, i write on a single topic with different keywords used, or different article titles with almost the same meaning. this is quite frustrating at times, but i got some motivation from my family, which is indeed a big factor. because i'm not in the right position to complain writing to a client, i just experiment on the process of writing the article and getting new sources of information, since there are lots of newer info every day or every week in the web, so that i would be interested. even if you're writing for the same topic, you would get at least the tiniest new information while researching for your topic everyday.

Same sentiments here. I'm not exactly fond of article spinners since I feel that I'm cheating my client and readers. If I don't feel confident to write something, I don't publish it. I try to 'reinvent' my articles who has the cruel fate of being used all over again but sometimes I have my moments of weaknesses and frustration. I hope that the web won't run out of useful info. Though sometimes I can't find some information on a topic in the web, no matter how hard I try.

I understand you so well. A client asked our company for 5,000 articles about natural juices. I have done about 1,000 of them, and this project is not yet over, so I may see more. At 600 words per article and keyword density of 2%, it means I wrote "natural juice" 12,000 times. And it's such an interesting topic, too. My brain no longer processes the significance of these words, I could probably write that you can squeeze a gardenia and some coffee beans to make a glass of natural juice.

Ah...the bad side of writing with a specific number of keywords. Another beef that I have is that the keywords are sometimes inaccurate in spelling or in awkward potions. This leaves' to really tailor-fit the content becuase the keyword has to be inside the article.

Why on earth do you have to write the same thing again and again? That's horrible... If you're doing multiple rewrites of a document, you might want to look into article spinners (which will save you hassle once you get used to the weird format). If you're writing the same thing for different teachers (or something), wouldn't it be worth informing them that they're wasting their (and your) time?

Well, it's not that I want to...it's more of a need since my client required me to write some articles with the same, if not, related terms. I get to pay per project (sometimes per article) and I don't wan to turn down something that I can do and something that I love to do (besides, I'm good at this...as my handler often tells me). Perhaps, I just feel that I feel saturated by writing the same thing over and over again to the point that the topic is a plain topic and not an interest. I heard of article spinners but I try not use those. Somehow, if I put my article into a spinner, I won't completely feel that I own that piece. I also won't be confident submitting that piece becuase somehow I cannot claim it 100% mine .

Well yes probably I fell very bored and mush as you said typing the same thing over again and again. But most often I have not come across such situations I havr just did ths one r two times when I dont get any replies. Also imagining such things makes our mind very bugging so I guess tye mire we typecand write new things it will be more entutistic for us and make aspects more interesting.

IT's definitely a chore to repeat stuff again and again and again. What's more when we are to generate new content every single time. Plagiarism is a sin even if we were to copy our own work. Yes, inspiration will be affected i guess. But i also believe that the world is so big that we can never finish writing everything about it. Even in one single field, there is just so much to learn. Perhaps you can try to take a break to refresh your brain and then go back to writing again? Hope that helps.

Jeanneyvonne oh but with the economy so bad, at least here in the US in California I would do whatever I needed to make the job more appealing as a job in the hand now days is worth a hundred people wanting that same job.quit now and you might not get another job for weeks not to mention months. so try to find ways to make your job a lot more appealing to you. think about being unemployed and see if it does not inspire you to make small changes to make it more appealing . I worked part time in the library and a lot of work there is repetitive but it was a job that put food on the table and paid the rent too.My husband was partly disabled and could not work following colon cancer surgery.He did get an SSI check too but any time I got a raise they took money out of his ssi check.

being a freelance writer i have tried writing articles repeatedly, keeping the same content, the same meaning, but trying to make it appear as a whole new article. im starting to be tired of this job so recently i figured out i should just create a team of writers. :)
